I am a single mom with a son with genetic epilepsy, he is 6 years old. The doctor suggested us to get a dog trained to help with detecting an oncoming seizure, since my son has the majority of them while he is sleeping for me it is so hard to sleep every night because I live in the anxiety he will have one and I will not wake up in time. Growing up a dog could help him to be more independent in life making sure he does not harm himself. We got approved from 4pawsforability and now we need to start to fundraise to money for me to afford one for my son!
