Chere,
 
Certainly you know you have many, many friends in the 'ferret world' willing
to help in any way that we can.  Keep your chin up, we all go through 'lean'
times and the fuzzies and fuzzy people always manage to pull us through.
 
Let everyone know exactly what you need, and what we can do to help, and I
am certain that it will be done.
 
This part is to Chere, Debbie R., and **ALL** the other shelter operators
out there..... Accidents happen!!!  We do our best to protect these little
ones, but no matter what, things WILL happen that are simply beyond our
control or our realm of knowledge to prevent.  All we can do is learn from
them and go forward from them doing the best we can to prevent the same from
occuring again.  I have had to learn some very hard personal lessons myself,
about fuzzies and their "self-destruct" mode they are continuously in.  If
we kick ourselves over and over for something like this, we are only hurting
ourselves and making it harder to go on and continue to help the hundreds of
fuzzies out there that need us desperately to go on.
 
Now, go and sit yourself down in the middle of a group of fuzzbuckets and
**PLAY** with them, they will take care of your depression better than
anything else on earth.
