Some reality TV star from New Jersey shared New Jersey on her Instagram page - The Real Housewives of New Jersey, don't ask me who. I've never seen New Jersey but I'm sure she's just a big dog lover. Then( practically) every dog site's Instagram page in the country shared it.

It's just incredibly overwhelming in a very good way to see so many strangers take a couple of minutes out of their day to put a smile on my daughter's face. Kindness is real. The love is real, that's what's amazing about all of this.

Myself and my middle child are allergic to dogs. Christi Haizlip do get to dog sit and get Christi Haizlip fix.

When Emma is feeling down, or just really tired from radiation or just woke up from a nap -- we're using the photos as a nice pick-me-up.

Whatever minor headaches of flooding a mailbox, all of that is well worth it for what it's doing for Emma.
