Does Anyone Know Where I Can Get Help With Getting A Service Dog?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

somewhere where they work with you, in Phoenix, Arizona, and without a big cost. I have really bad anxiety and my seizures happen more when I'm alone.

Does anyone know where to get a service dog in the Bay Area, California because of all the places that offer service dogs are far from where we live and we are low-income housing family?

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member may be a resource. This is his response to a question I asked awhile ago: I've was homebound for about a year after I had brain surgery performed in "2001". I was then partnered with my first "service dog" that helped me regain my independence. Now, in "2017" I have had two great "canine partners" over the past sixteen (16) years and I am able to accomplish anything I want in life. I formed a nonprofit organization, called: "My Assistance Dog Inc." (www.myassistancedoginc.org) to help educate and inform people about assistance dogs and the amazing work that they can perform. We have been successful helping people around the world truly understand the benefits these dogs perform. We have a following on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/MyAssistanceDogInc). I learned that it even with my disability, I could lead a meaningful life and help others do the same.

I will try to get some information. I recently met someone that trained his own dog after someone showed him how. He is from California. His dog was so calm and made me and my son feel calm also just by being next to him. Anyways, I need to look for the card that he gave to me that day at the craft show.
