When I first got Parah I was at a very low point in my life. I left my husband not long after I brought her home, moved all the way to Kansas for a fresh start (I was born and raised in Louisiana), decided that nowhere would ever compare or feel like home except Louisiana so I moved back, I did alot of solo traveling which I’d never done alone before (Hawaii, Los Angeles, Washington, etc..), traveled alone on long distance roadtrips, and was, for the 1st time in my 30 years of life officially experiencing things truly by myself. P was with me every second for each and every new adventure. She was so tiny that she traveled in my purse and never once was not with me no matter where I went. Shortly after moving back to Louisiana I began suffering from seizures. Parah was so in tuned with me that she instinctively began alerting me when one was coming or when my heart rate was high and even when my severe anxiety was approaching the threshold that if it went over would trigger a severe panic attack and/or seizure. She also would lay on my chest after a seizure and lick me which helped me come out of it quicker. She literally saved my life on so many occasions and officially became my seizure alert service dog. In 2017, after they found out the cause and my seizures were completely under control, I became pregnant with my son. The day he came home from the hospital her entire focus was solely on him. She never left his side and was his very 1st best friend. She was “HIS P”. She was so gentle with him and allowed him to do anything he wanted to her, like count her toes or count her teeth, and was never bothered one bit. She would just lick him and stay still until he had finished. They did everything together and their bond was unbreakable. To say that losing Parah has left a huge hole in our hearts that will never heal is an understatement. She was what saved me during the hardest and lowest times of my life and she was the one who showed my son what it feels like to have a forever best friend. We will forever love and miss you P and we will always cherish the incredible impact you had on us changing our lives for the better.
