Am I Worthy of a Needing a Service Dog?

"Am I worthy of needing a service dog?"

"I've never heard of service dogs for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome."

"I need help, but, I don't know if I need a service dog."

​"Oh, gosh, surely someone else needs a service dog more than I do."

"I can barely get medical attention. How would I qualify for a service dog?"

You're not alone. I had those questions, too. 

Disabled Advantage was created for people with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome to have access to finding answers for those questions, and more, from someone who has Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. 

Hi, my name is Sally. I'm the owner & trainer for Disabled Advantage. 

First of all, You Are Worthy of receiving help for your CRPS/RSD. Without question. 

Second, if you're disabled by CRPS/RSD, and you want to know if a service dog is a good fit for you, I want to help you figure this out. 

Third, if you aren't sure if your CRPS/RSD is a disability or not, I want to try to help you determine this answer, as well. You don't have to be on government disability for your disability to count as a real disability. Not everyone with CRPS/RSD is disabled by it, but you might be one who is and may not know it. The second my accident happened, I was effectively disabled by the CRPS/RSD, but it took me 4 years to realize it. 

Life with CRPS/RSD is a hard road. I've got a plan for you that helps getting answers to some of your questions a little easier!

Step 1: Book a FREE 30-minute consult with me. We'll talk about your CRPS, how it started, and I'll give you a chance to share some of your questions.

Step 2: In your consult, we'll decide together if signing up for in-depth coaching sessions with me is a good path for you, to help answer more questions about CRPS, how a service dog might help you specifically, how to find a program to help you, or if you want to consider training your own through Disabled Advantage. 

It's that simple! I can't promise to have all the answers, but I promise to listen and give you the best direction I can offer. 

All too often, we're left to question our worthiness with CRPS because of how the system treats us. Let's see if we can bring you a little clarity and confidence moving forward.
