Fort Benning Ga, First Grader's new Best Friend is Expected to Save His Life

    Good News from Ft. Benning!  Christian Bray and his first grade classmates began a letter writing campaign that may have life saving benefits for young Christian and his family.  Christian Bray was diagnosed with epilepsy and cerebral palsy at birth and the recent efforts of these fantastic first graders caught the attention of J.D. Fenessy of the Milk-Bone Company.  Milk-Bone is a Sponsor of Canine Assistants, a non profit organization that provides service dogs. 

     Christian has seizures and stops breathing when he is sleeping, hopes are that his new canine friend will alert his parents and allow Christian to become more independent. Service dogs can be trained to understand ninety separate commands and to recognize Christians specific needs.  Specifically the four footed guardian will be able to open doors, turn on lights, pull wheel chairs and fetch.  In May the Bray family will meet their newest family member and begin a bonding / training program to meet Christian's specific needs.

     CONGRATULATIONS to the Bray Family, Christian's teacher and classmates your efforts were simply AWESOME.  Wonderful kids and teachers make up the Columbus, Ft. Benning and Phenix City Community I am proud and happy to share this news with everybody.
