Hayden Kristal’s adoption of Bitsy, a deaf and blind puppy, was an act of love. Her father, Steve, was concerned. “How can she live? How can she be happy without sight or sound?”
Bitsy proved him wrong. Guided by Hayden, she experienced the world through touch and smell. She hiked, played in parks, and even skateboarded. She was brave, not weak – a fighter who overcame any challenge.
Steve, once hesitant, became her biggest admirer. He showered her with affection, seeing her as exceptional, not limited. Then, the pandemic separated them, and Steve feared: What if Bitsy forgets me?
When they met again, his fear dissolved. At the first hint of his scent, Bitsy was overjoyed – tail wagging, body shaking, clinging to him as if to say: I remember you. Steve’s tears spoke volumes.
Their reunion went viral, because it showed that love transcends physical senses. Love is found in devotion, closeness, and the silent language of the heart.
