Their daughter had been in a coma for months, and every doctor repeated the same heavy truth: there was no way forward. When Peter and Olivia finally gathered the strength to say goodbye, they held each other’s hands like people at the edge of a cliff. Then a massive white dog burst through the door, bounded to the bed, and began licking the girl’s hand.
