"Until Tuesday"

     I have a book recommendation for you.  "Until Tuesday, A Wounded Warrior and the Golden Retriever Who Saved Him" was written by Luis Carlos Montalvan.  It gives a look at our government's behavior in Iraq and the effect it had on soldiers there.  It gives an excellent description of TBI (traumatic brain injury), PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), and also the disabilities of wounded warriors who are back home.
     You will love reading about Tuesday, Montalvan's service dog, a golden retriever, who saved his life.  They have an amazing relationship.
      Many of the dogs trained at Freedom Service Dogs, where I am a volunteer, go to wounded warriors, however at Freedom Service Dogs the dogs are rescued from shelters rather than being specifically bred for service dog work.  They rescue dogs to rescue people.  I like that.
     "Until Tuesday" is going to be made into a movie, as well.  It is a great read.
