Liz did everything she could do to care for a patient who was being transferred to the VA but did not have any resources to care for his dog. His dog was so important to him that he claimed it was the only thing keeping him alive. Liz organized a collection to cover the cost of boarding and even updated the dog's vaccinations. After the patient was discharged from the VA, Liz brought the dog back home because the patient was unable to do so himself. Liz even made sure the dog went home with a new bag of food. After taking the patient's dog home, Liz learned that the patient had accidentally left his cell phone in the taxi on his way home from the VA. Liz contacted the VA in Madison and Rockford in order to track down the cell phone. Liz personally picked up and returned the patient's phone to him.
