When the World Trade Center was attacked on 9-11, it was as though the world
stood still. It was a day that captured our full attention. Michael Hingson
and his Guide Dog Roselle were on the 78th floor of Tower One that day, and
were able to make their way to safety and survive the attack. 
 
 
 The duo was immediately thrust into the international spotlight, becoming
well-known representatives of the strength of the human/animal bond and a
living example of the powerful partnership that exists between a blind
person and their Guide Dog. 
 
Micheal has written a book entitled Thunder Dog.  
We have the privilge of presenting Micheal and his story to everyone,
November 29, 2011 on the Phone Faith Chat Line. 
Barbara/Nikki and the line owner, Dexter Thomas will host this exciting
event.
 
Again, the date is Tuesday, November 29 at 7 pm central. To be a part of
this   
experience, please call 231-732-7070. Simply follow the prompts to reach
Chat Room 7.

I am not sure what kind of "assistance" you need, 
as you were able to post here?
