Elizabeth was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes on December 10, 2008, about one month before her 11th birthday.  Since then we have had many battles with high blood sugar levels and the more worrisome low blood sugars.  We would like to add a D.A.D. (diabetic alert dog) to our family to help us keep her healthy and safe.  To do that, we need to raise about $3000.  That will cover the cost of the puppy and transport to our home, but will not cover all of the necessities that any puppy, let alone a Service Dog in Training will require.  Our goal is to have the dog fully trained and able to have full public access as a Service Dog by the time she graduates from high school and is ready to move on to college.  Thank you for your support.  We will be holding fund raisers and I will be selling what I can.  I also have a paypal account set up with an attached savings account for Elizabeth and her D.A.D.  To donate, you can send money via paypal to nicolegrimesavon@gmail.com.
