Hi Laurie,
What a great post. I have a very severe vestibular disorder which
leaves me in states ranging from mild dizziness to out and out vertigo
where I am unable to walk. Because of this, I can literally get lost
in my own house/backyard because nothing will "hold still. Sometimes
I can be walking and not know it because the vertigo is so bad. I am
also profoundly deaf so cannot use sound cues to locate places.
I have taught all of my dogs to leash guide and to take me inside or
if I'm inside, to take me to a place to sit.
It's very helpful.
