Gravesend mum Candy Adams says she owes her life to her medical detection dog
Transcript
00:00 I'd say he's pretty much saved my life really. I went from a stage of not being able to leave the house or get out of the bed at all
00:08 to having the confidence to be able to go out in public knowing that he will alert me for many sort of imminent collapses
00:22 but also stay with me if I did collapse which then kept my children safe as well.
00:28 He'll start by just sort of staring at me. It's quite a subtle sort of, you know, you need to sit down.
00:38 If I do ignore him because sometimes life's a little bit busy and we do, he then will ramp it up.
00:46 So if we're out he may sit down, refuse to move, stop in front of me. If we're in the house he'll sit in front of me.
01:00 Yeah, he's got a lovely stubborn streak so if I do ignore him, which obviously I shouldn't,
01:07 but like I said, sometimes life gets in the way then he'll just ramp it up so that I listen to him.
