Some of you might be wondering where I’ve been for the past month. Three weeks ago, Brad’s Aunt Nancy passed away. Nancy was like a second mother to me. I called her and Brad’s cousin Tamara, who lived with her, about every other day. We had game days twice a […]
A loved one of mine is in the psych ER after she attempted to unalive herself. Brad and I visited yesterday with no issue. I had Felix with me. Today I went by myself, in my wheelchair (there are no chairs in the psych ER), with Felix. I went up […]
Yesterday Brad and I did a photo shoot! Unfortunately the shoot took so long that I missed agility class 🙁 But it was really important for Brad to get the photo shoot done as it is an idea he’s had for a long while and hasn’t had time to put […]
Last week I went up to Ohio to help my parents again. My dad needed to have cataract surgery, and needed someone to drive him around for a few days after surgery. Plus he was starting radiation, and I wanted to be there for that. My mom’s dementia is quite […]

I just got home from a really really difficult dentist appointment. This appointment was harder than my last appointment, where there was an ill-behaved ESA running loose trying to jump on my dog. So obviously we went to a different dentist this time. This one had been recommended by family […]
We took a break from Felix’s vacation from working for me to go to my psychiatrist’s office on Wednesday. I decided to set up my camera on my wheelchair and record it to see if we got any interesting videos of service dog or wheelchair user experiences. Felix was back […]
Yesterday we gave a talk at the Cherokee County Library for the nonprofit we volunteer for, Psychiatric Service Dog Partners. It was a little over an hour’s drive away, but luckily all on easy to drive back roads. Brad drove there and back, so I could look at the interesting […]
