Nurse overcomes Lyme disease with her rescue dog’s help.
Human-Animal Relationship Awareness Week is observed annually in the second week of November. This year, the Week extends from November 13 -19. It was created to help us realize the importance of the connection we share with our pets. Nurse & author Dawn Blair knows the value and importance of that special connection. As she shared it with her 7lb rescue dog, Mr. Monks. Not only did she save his life but he saved hers. Her book, Me And Mr. Monks is a tribute to him and all that he meant to her.
Local nurse, Dawn Blair was diagnosed with Lyme disease, and to say it took a toll on her would be putting it mildly. For 4 years, Dawn dealt with fatigue, crippling migraines, chronic insomnia, loss of balance, dizziness, brain fog, neuropathy, and open sores/ulcers over her body and face that would not heal. Physically beaten down to the point where she was contemplating suicide, Dawn turned to her rescue dog, Mr. Monks for comfort. And Mr. Monks delivered.
Dawn has been featured in numerous news outlets with her most recent appearance being on ABC Portland. Would you be interested in speaking with her?
