Autophobia is defined as the specific phobia of isolation; a morbid fear of being egotistical, or a dread of being alone or isolated. Sufferers need not be physically alone, but just to believe that they are being ignored or unloved.
My new service dog comes running over to me then I clip her vest and leash on.
"There we go." I say as I look at my service dog

I got a service dog because after my...attempt I guess something happened in my brain and now I have seizures.
When my ex showed up at the hospital I guess everything got too much and I slipped into a coma and I was in the coma for almost 4 months. A week into the coma Kelley and Toby had me transferred from San Diego to Portland so they could be close to me.
I woke up from my coma on May 5th and I went home a week later.
Sadly Kelley missed SheBelieve's camp so she could look after me in the hospital and Toby missed the April friendlies so she could look after me in the hospital as well.
I hope I didn't ruin their chances of making the Olympic team.
"Let's go get Kelley." I say to my dog who barks.
I scratch my doggies head for a few seconds then I go and grab my backpack which has my camera, laptop, my medicine, some of Sandy's toy's, some of her treats, and her collapsable water bowl.
I also grab some waters for us to drink.
What?
I like being prepared.
After I have everything we'll need Sandy and I get into my care then we make the drive to Providence Park. Once at the Portland stadium Sandy and I park, get out of the car, then we into head into the stadium and see the girls either siting around resting or doing some running thing.
"DOGGIE." Ellie Carpenter yells.
I have my memory back so I guess I gained that, but unfortunately I gained seizures as well.
"Yes the doggie is cute, but let's focus on training for now." Christine Sinclair says and training resumes.
Sandy and I walk over to Kelley who is sitting down in the shade and sit next to her.
"Hey Babygirl." Kelley says causing my stomach to get butterflies.
"Hi Peaches." I say then peck her lips. "How's training going?"
"Long." Kelley says then she takes a sip of her water
The last of the girls finish their running and come over and sit in the shade.
"Come on Sandy." I say and grab one of her tennis balls.
I then walk to the edge of the shade and throw Sandy's ball for a while until all of a sudden Sandy drops the ball and paws my foot. Sandy then barks until she gets Kelley's attention. Once Sandy has Kelley's attention she barks 3 times.
