Hi Everyone,
Bill & I just came home from the Multiple Sclerosis Dinner. When we arrived, they checked us in and gave me my award. A clear latex foot! It represents the motto "1 Step at a time"
There were about 15 other people who also raised $4000.00. We were all called up on the stage. Then they took pictures. I gave the photographer my email address, he said he would send it to me.
They were proud to announce that our Chapter raised over 1 Million Dollars last year!!! Less than 10 chapters in the whole country raise that much!
Bill & I were eager to tell story of Sable. I told all the wonderful things she has been trained to do; like retrieving things I drop, bringing objects I ask for & dragging the laundry bag up & down to the laundry room for me...But Everyone was stunned & pleased to hear my favorite; getting the portable phone for me IF I fall. Several people asked for the trainers information. I will be sure to pick up more business cards from C & G K9 School .
* I asked if there was someone who could help me write a book about Sable, and how she helps me. They will look into it. This is a great resource and People with MS should be aware of it and who that help is available.
I an so proud that my Team of Family, Friends & Sponsors could help to accomplish this 'feat'.
Janette
