It’s 2023 now. Lucy Humphrey is 44 years old. She needs a new kidney(肾). If she couldn’t find one, she would only have 5 years to live. But it was very hard. Luckily, her pet dog did something for her.

Lucy and Cenydd have two dogs, Jake and Indie. One day, the four went to the beach. Indie kept running off to a woman. The woman was camping on her own. Indie kept running back and forth to her. In the end, Cenydd went over to say sorry to her. He invited her to barbecue together.

The three started talking, eating and drinking. The woman was Katie James. She is 40 years old. Lucy said she couldn’t drink alcohol (酒) because she was ill. Katie said that she was going to donate (捐赠) her kidney. Then they got each other’s telephone numbers.

After a lot of tests, they got to know that Kaite was a perfect match (完美匹配). After the donation, the three became good friends.
