I also miss my issues of Modern Ferret. Loved the personal touch, felt like I was part of the *family* when I read the cute stories written by their Ferrets. In the last couple of issues Eric mentioned his battle with Crohn's disease. This is a very serious and debilitating disease. I can only imagine every ounce of their strength and energy is spent on this health issue. I have a good friend with Crohn's. At the moment, she is being fed interveniously. Hasn't had any food by mouth in over 6 months. In the hospital more than out. Not fun. Maybe we could send good thoughts to Eric, Mary and their family of fur kids.
