Not because this story is easy to tell, but because it needs to be told.
From surviving in silence to standing in purpose.
This never would have happened without the people who believed in me when I couldn’t, especially Bobby Gierla from , who doesn’t just breed and train dogs, but helped me rebuild trust, strength, and safety when I had lost all three.
Every scar, every step, every dog led here, especially because of Stella.
This is for every survivor who feels alone and powerless. You aren’t. And this isn’t the end of your story. I’m living proof of that.
