Renae and I are starting this Blog to help bring awareness to what we call a "hidden disability". This disability is mood disorders or mental issues that people cannot see on a person so they find it hard to understand these disabilities. Most people with mood disorders are very good at hiding them from the public and show all the symptoms at home or in their "safe havens". Our daughter Faith has a "hidden disability" and we intend to share her story to help bring awareness to these disabilities and some of the awesome resources and people we have encountered to help us provide for Faith and help her live with her disability. We are also going to ask all of our friends and family to help pass the word so as to help us raise money to purchase Faith a psychiatric service dog. While doing this we also help to bring awareness to the awesome military spouse Katie Gonzalez, founder of Little Angels Service Dogs, who will be training Faith's dog and who has helped numerous other clients by providing psychiatric service dogs for them. Please help us with this blog by passing it on to your friends, adding to it, or helping us find stories of people who have service dogs or know someone who does. The more awareness we raise about service dogs and how much they help will hopefully help get them covered by our insurance companies. They sure do cost less than all the medications they want to put patients on however none of them want to pay for the dogs. Thanks a lot and chat with you soon.
Kris and Renae
