After my first walk with Nell, I realized that I haven’t been able to “see” that well since childhood. It felt so natural, easy and relaxing.
Together, we will take the train to yoga class and practice our downward facing dog. I will enjoy daily tasks like going to the farmers market or walking on the avenue. I will spend an afternoon at one of my favorite museums or do lunch with a girlfriend – all with Nell to help me along the way.
Yes, she is an amazing guide dog, but she is so much more to me; she gives me pride, self confidence and dignity.
Thank you to everyone that supported me in my journey; you have literally changed my life.
