Emotional Support Dog for Reese

Donation protected
This wonderful child Reese Marzano who has Autism is in much need of an Emotional Support dog to help her, & her family with her daily needs. Her family, who I feel are the most selfless individuals that I have had the pleasure of knowing would NEVER actually ask others for this kind of help. They are always the first ones to step up and help others, now they need our help...... we can do this for them!
Reese requires a lot of support in her daily routine. She is at high risk of wandering. That being the case her parents can't EVER take their eyes off of her. She also has self injurious behaviors that have required hospitalization in the past. She has a very limited vocabulary causing her much frustration.
Reese really is a special child with so much love to give.  She melts the hearts of everyone who she invites into her circle. 
An Emotional Support dog would be life changing not only for Reese, but her entire family. Emotional Support dogs for autism have been shown to increase independence, and vocabulary. They are also known to provide an overall calming environment. This can help Reese control her self injurious tendencies. 
As you can imagine the cost of an Emotional Support Dog is NOT cheap! This furry companion will cost the family over $3,000.00. They are fortunate enough that Reese's Medicaid Service will cover the cost of the continuing emotional support training. 
This family who would be the first to step up & rally for others. They REALLY need our help!! This is the first step in helping our Reese find her independence. Plus give the family some peace of mind... Every little bit will help, and be VERY much appreciated! Please let's make this happen for them.
