To the FML:
Several days ago, Anne posted to the FML about ferrets which she had
adopted following her brother's passing and a requirement for adrenal
care:
>Does anyone know of a vet in the CT area or anywhere who might be willing
>to prescribe the injections so that we can continue to treat them?
>Please, please help me if you can. I love these ferrets and I feel a
>huge responsibility to my brother to care for them properly. I am so
>unimaginably frustrated by my parents' attitude I cannot begin to tell you.
I just wanted to post an update to this story - a vet in New England has
graciously agreed to provide care for the animals at considerably less than
cost. This vet is well known to many ferret owners in the area. I am
hesitant at the moment to mention this vet's name, for fear of setting an
unreasonable expectation on the FML that this kindness will become a
practice standard - every vet does have the right to turn a profit, or
else we wouldn't have may left. . Perhaps shortly I will be able to post
the rest of the story. I know that many people would be following this
story and hoping for that happy ending - and we've got it.
These are the kind of Christmas presents that the FML is famous for.
A happy, and healthy, Christmas to all,
Bruce Williams, DVM
