Unfortunately, my health has not improved, but I have grown to learn how to live my life with my illnesses in the back ground. I will get into that another time.
In good news, because of the longer term effects of my conditions, I made a life changing decision to look into getting a service dog. I did much research and came across a great program that trained service dogs to help me with many needs. I am allergic to most dogs because of Mast Cell, and I had to find a dog that was hypoallergenic. Months went by, as I waited to hear that they have passed a puppy and found the right fit for me. In January, I recieved that call. Dutch, who was named Yahoo (because he was the Y litter), was picked with flying colors as my future service dog and would go through over 6 months of intensive training.
July 17th of 2016, I received Dutch. A labradoodle trained to be my service dog. He is just amazing. He is currently only 8 months old and is just intelligent. Most people cannot believe how young he is and how well behaved he is. He is still a puppy and there are times when he will act as a puppy, but when he is in service mode, he loves to do his job.
I plan on updating this blog and website with adventures that me and Dutch take.
Recently we were in a local news article!
