Andy Szasz (62) battled colon cancer and underwent treatment to combat the disease. Despite surviving the ordeal, fate dealt him another blow in December a few years later.
Seriously ill again
Due to the compromised immune system from the intense treatment, Andy contracted pneumonia, worsening his condition and necessitating immediate admission to Southampton hospital.
His condition deteriorated further in the hospital, leading to doctors inducing a coma to save his life.
Andy emerged from the coma a week later.
Doctors agreed to visit
Andy’s wife Estelle sought to provide unwavering support during his coma, staying by his side constantly to ensure he could hear her.
She also requested the doctors’ permission for Teddy, their beloved four-legged companion, to visit. This visit proved transformative as Teddy, a Schnauzer poodle, leaped into Andy’s arms, sparking his awakening from the coma three days ahead of schedule.
The remarkable reunion left everyone stunned – nurses, doctors, and Estelle. Teddy’s presence exuded such positivity that it contributed to Andy’s recovery.
Surprisingly, Andy’s health improved remarkably, allowing him to interact with his dog without any issues.
News of Teddy’s impact reached the RSPCA, an organization dedicated to preventing animal cruelty. Teddy now occasionally serves as a therapy dog for other patients.
