that is not fair!!!!...i do not want someone to pick and choose what they
THINK i want to hear!!!...i wany to know WHAT IS BEING SAID!!!...
otherwise...what is the point?????
 
i would hope i am intelligent enough to know if he NEEDED to be there...
whether he wanted to or not...and to act on that..i already had my doubts
about him being left there so long...
 
>Plus, a bit of a diagnosis was made as to what is wrong with this
>ferret.
 
this is TOTALLY untrue!!!...she specifically said she was NOT making a
diagnosis...!!!!!...
 
this is her exact statement...
"I don't like to get into medical things cause I'm terrified that
I'm going to be wrong but I don't think it would hurt to explore
the possibility of some type of blockage."
 
it was just another possibility...and, FYI...the Reiki lady said the very
same thing...she felt something in his lower tummy!
 
have YOU not done that?..haven't we ALL???...trying to cover ALL bases
to help?????...giving alternate possibilities?????..that is the point of
talking to others...to see things from all sides...
 
>I took the symptoms,sent them to a VERY famous DVM,and he saw that

as to "diagnosing"...i addressed that...
 
as for the other....at least in MY case...it is not the case...he is at
the vet...and if he says wolfie NEEDS to stay there...he will..but last
i heard..he was just observing wolfie...and since i no longer have a
phone...i can not say what is going on this minute...but if nothing is
going on...the staying there is stressing wolfie out more.
 
>My 2 cents.....

you are entitled...but i am also entitled to clear this up... i thank you
for caring so deeply...but it was unnecessary in my case... all was and
is as it should be...
 
love,
