[Ohio-Talk] Brokenhearted

[Sadie McFarland]

Good evening Federation family. About a month ago, I wrote to introduce you all to my amazing new guide dog, Lester. At 8:30 AM yesterday, I held her leash for the last time. We had some incidents and problems that the field rep and foundation could not ignore. Although Lester was an incredible guide, my Safety must come first, and her dog distraction problems were causing my Safety to be of concern. She will forever and always be my first guide dog, and I am truly devastated to lose her. She will always be my first guide dog. She will always have my heart. Prayers are appreciated as I prepare, grieve, and wait for my next Guide and companion. 

Blessings,

Sadie M. McFarland
