ServiceDogs 4 Servicemen, Inc. hasn't added a story.
True Story from a vet with a sponsored Service Dog.
"It took almost 3
months to be scheduled for an MRI. Upon arrival the technician told me
to imagine something pleasant like a walk on the beach. MRI takes over
20+ minutes.
After almost 10 minutes I was banging on the tube
to be let out!
I cant take this. Suffocating.
Technician
said he could reschedule in a couple more months. After a few minutes
to catch my breath and get heart rate down I figured out a solution. I
told him to start the test again. He reluctantly started it again
warning that the result could be the same. I told him that I had a NEW
survival strategy. He said, "OK."
As I was being
rolled back into the tube I imagined myself putting my Service Dog's
vest on. I envisioned going to the door of my house with her and
walking outside. In my minds eye I saw myself walking with my Service
Dog through my neighborhood and greeting people that we knew. My
Service Dog is my battle buddy. We walked on many familiar paths to
many familiar places.
Before I knew it, the technician was
telling me. "Its all done Sir. You got through it."
I
could not have done this without my Service Dog at my side. The
technician smiled as if he had some clue of what I experienced. When I
got home I hugged my happy Service Dog and thanked her for being there
for me even though she did not know it..."
