Emotional Support Advice 

From Anonymous:  REPLY 
JABBERS, my husband has severe anxiety related to air travel. We recently learned that it may be possible to have our dog registered as an emotional support animal. We are new to the area and will be traveling often so it's important to do something to help him. Do you know anything about this process? Is there a therapist you recommend who has worked with this type of situation before? We greatly appreciate your replies. 

 

  

JABBERS, You Came Through Again!

From Team JAB Bella

A few weeks ago we wrote to you about Bella's Band-Aid drive. Bella is a precious nine-year-old girl who is battling cancer, and while at the hospital, noticed that there were no "fun" bandages for kids getting treatment. With the help of JABBERS, she collected 2,500 boxes of colorful Band-Aids - enough that she needed wagons to wheel them all in! One of our local news stations, CBS4, was so inspired, they featured her in a story HERE. Bella's mom, Shannah, had this to say, "A BIG thank you to JAB. We deeply appreciate your constant prayers and support." Thank you JABBERS!
