Becky found a patient in the Cancer Center crying. Becky is very compassionate and went over to talk to the patient to see if she could help. The patient stated she has to move because she can no longer take care of herself and cannot take her beloved cat with her. She was crying because she was having difficulty coping with the fact that the cat would have to go to the pound. Becky, who already has a cat of her own, told the patient that she would take the cat and give it a good home. That weekend the patient gave the cat to Becky and was very happy her cat would have a loving home.
