Service Paws: fund a service animal

Donation protected
Hi. My name is Greg P. I am running this GoFundMe to help a close friend of mine who suffers from PTSD and needs service animal training for their service animal to help them through the day. (NOTE: Due to her conditions, this person has requested that I keep their name off of the GoFundMe, as it triggers their anxiety very badly) That friend suffers so badly that they can't even leave the house alone. They suffer from PTSD so badly that they also suffer from diagnosed psychogenic non-epileptic seizures a.k.a. PNES (events resembling an epileptic seizure, but without the characteristic electrical discharges associated with epilepsy. They are of psychological origin, and are one type of non-epileptic seizure mimics. PNES are also known less specifically as non-epileptic attack disorder {NEAD} and functional neurological symptom disorder. -  Wikipedia)

I feel that no one suffering from PTSD, or any trauma that requires the aid of a service animal, should ever have to also face such a large fee alone just to feel safe in their everyday activities, no matter where they're at.

You can make direct donations through our PayPal as well: [email redacted] and keep up with is on Twitter (https://twitter.com/Service_Paws). Thank you to everyone that offers support or helps to spread this around!
