Speaking/Meeting Planners
Celebrate the transforming power of animals with Dr. Nelson as we explore the wonders of the human-animal bond!
Dr. Nelson's talk is titled: "Embrace Animals and Improve the Love In Your Life!"  She will also customize presentations while celebrating the human-animal bond.

Corporate and Non-Profit:  Healthy and well-balanced employees are more productive for their organizations and more caring for customers.  Animals tranform us-they exhibit unconditional love and provide a myriad of health benefits; lower blood pressure, help us retain cognitive function even in the face of aging, serve a catalysts for social interaction and lower our cholesterol.  Diverse organizations like human hospitals and the military utilize therapy animals to impact change.  Thus, wellness is a major component of our interaction with animals.  Dr. Nelson celebrates the human-animal bond with stories from her practice and book:  Coated With Fur: A Vet's Life, to inspire your workforce, major donors or as a gift to your customers and community.

Women's Groups:  Builds from the above presentation with life lessons from animal moms both domestic and wild. 

Cancer Survivors:  Dr. Nelson explores the incredible role animals played in helping her fight cancer.  She recounts stories from the hospital's security dogs to her own pets at home.  From beginning to end, animals were critical in helping her overcome Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Burkitt's Lymphoma.  This inspiring story is interwoven with wonderful and surprising tales of the animals who got her through four months of intense in-hospital chemotherapy.
