Hi all . . .
 
I am a free-lance writer (well, ok, two weeks ago I was a UsWest directory
operator, but NOW I'm a free-lance writer <g>) and an article idea has been
waddeling around in my brain.  Donny's nice letter yesterday gelled the
idea, so now I need some material.
 
I'm planning several queries addressing articles about therapy ferrets.
 
So here I am, asking the fml (and Maggie's Mob) for inspirational, upbeat
stories about how ferrets have acted as therapy animals.
 
We all know that a sprightly, playful, inquisitive ferret can really give
the spirit a boost.
 
So if you have a few minutes, and a story to tell, I'd love to hear from
you.  If your story includes a disability or disease, I'd also appreciate
some details--but ask that any info you do not want shared be bracketed or
otherwise indicated.  (psst . . .  strictly off the record...) That goes
for identities, also--if you're comfortable sharing your story but would
rather your name not be used, I will greatly respect that.
 
Onto specifices:  I'd love to hear from the ferret who demonstrates to
those who have lost limbs that life can and will be good again.  What a
wonderful fuzzy!
 
Here I go, leaping for my dreams--would you guys be my stepping stones?
 
Hugs and dooks to all,
