So, it’s finally June. Not that I wanted to rush my birthday month, but there is a lot going on for me in June. Medical appointments, progress on the service dog front, exciting visitors, and hopefully some time at the beach!
Tomorrow is my first adventure for June. I am headed south to Charleston for an important appointment at MUSC. I will be receiving Botox injections in my bladder to help combat the symptoms I’ve been having. If all goes well, I will continue to get this every couple of months. While I am not looking forward to the procedure itself, I am looking forward to its results. I have heard good things from other’s that have gone down this path. Plus a road trip with my niece is always a fun adventure! I’m looking forward to catching up with her and all of her happenings.
Next, is BIG! June 10th is a HUGE next step forward with PAALS and the process of getting a service dog. I will welcome the PAALS team (with dog in tow) to my community and apartment. They will be discovering what I need to do to get my space ready for a wet nosed, lovable, smart dog. The team and I will also be doing a community visit; we will be exploring my local grocery store while I interact with the service dog in training that will becoming to visit. After these visits, I am hoping to get my official client letter from PAALS, which will allow me to begin my fundraising and planning. Please send extra good thoughts and prayers my way for this event!
By mid June, I will be looking forward to welcoming my dear friend and her fiancĂ©. I am excited to spend time with both of them and hopefully get some incredible beach time in. Our only plans are to enjoy each other’s company, get tan, and enjoy the ocean breeze! There is nothing better than being able to simply pickup where you last saw a good friend(in this case its been over 5 years) and enjoy each other’s company.
Today, in honor of all this coming, I am wearing a new t-shirt that I found- Not only is it featuring the Fraggles from Fraggle Rock, it reads- Powered by Positivity! I absolutely love it!
There will be more doctor appointments, warm days, and exciting adventures but these are definitely the highlights I am looking forward to!
