Cape Town Dog Names

Okay, so the dog's name isn't really hope. Nor is he from the Cape of Good Hope, South Africa. But this canine is the essence of hope, the spirit of determination, and the light of love and loyalty. This is the story of a black lab named Napal that saved the life of a wounded warrior and mended a family back together. He is also the reason for the book,  A Dog Called Hope, The Wounded Warrior and the Dog Who Dared to Love Him.

Staff Sergeant Jason Morgan. a special forces soldier was found face down in a swamp in Central America after his mission turned into a disaster. He had catastrophic injuries including collapsed lungs,  a smashed spine, and numerous broken bones. He was in a coma for months. When he finally awoke he discovered he was paralyzed from the waist down and had months of surgery ahead if he were to survive.

When he left the hospital it was in a wheelchair. He had to battle memory loss and to top it off, his wife left him as a dad with three young sons.

Despair filled Morgan's world and he was on the edge of desperation. He'd had surgery after surgery, including one that actually allowed him to move his hips again. Unfortunately, the pain became unbearable and Jason chose to have a surgery to sever the nerves in his legs. He lost what little ground he had gained and no longer had any movement in his legs.

Morgan was losing his battle until a handsome black lab named Napal entered his life. It was Napal that gave Jason hope again, that helped him to learn to deal with his paralysis, and showed him the path to becoming the father he wanted to be. It was Napal who gave him the courage to become a medalist in the Warrior Games, the military Paralympics, and it was Napal who encouraged him to learn to ride horseback, swim,  golf, and scuba dive. He even ran a marathon
