Subject: Fw: Not all heroes are people
> NOT ALL HEROES ARE PEOPLE ~ ~ ~
> James Crane worked on the 101st floor of Tower 1 of the World Trade
> Center.
> He is blind so he has a golden retriever named Daisy. After the plane hit
> 20 stories below, James knew that he was doomed, so he let Daisy go, out
> of
> an act of love. She darted away into the darkened hallway. Choking on the
> fumes of the jet fuel and the smoke James was just waiting to die. About
> 30
> minutes later, Daisy comes back along with James' boss, who Daisy just
> happened to pick up on floor 112.
>
> On her first run of the building, she leads James, James' boss, and about
> 300 more people out of the doomed building. But she wasn't through yet,
> she
> knew there were others who were trapped. So, highly against James' wishes
> she ran back in the building.
>
> On her second run, she saved 392 lives. Again she went back in. During
> this
> run, the building collapses. James hears about this and falls on his knees
> into tears. Against all known odds, Daisy makes it out alive, but this
> time
> she is carried by a firefighter. "She led us right to the people, before
> she got injured" the fireman explained.
>
> Her final run saved another 273 lives. She suffered acute smoke
> inhalation,
> severe burns on all four paws, and a broken leg, but she saved 967 lives.
> Daisy is the first civilian Canine to win the Medal of Honor of New York
