Eagle and cancer survivor help each other fight for life
I scoff at Lifetime channel movie weepers, but animal stories always get me. Here is one posted on Snopes recently about Freedom, a fledgling bald eagle that fell out of her nest at a Seattle golf course, crushing both of her wings.
She was nursed back to health by Jeff Guidry, an educational team member at an Everett, WA. wildlife care center, who later was diagnosed with cancer.
Dare you to read it and not cry. Double dog dare.
ANGIE BRENNAN, a Sun-Sentinel page designer,
lives with four dogs and one boyfriend. And has a lifetime of animal stories to share.
DIANE LADE, a reporter on the Sun-Sentinel's Help Team, has lived with cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, an iguana, and an armadillo.
CYNDI METZGER, editor of the Sun-Sentinel's Outlook section, is smitten with Bella, her poodle who regularly ignores requests to sit, stay and get off the ivory-colored sofa. 
JOHN TANASYCHUK, a Sun-Sentinel lifestyle writer, has lived with cats as long as he can remember. He and his partner currently share their home with three.
