I am not even going to entertain some of you with responces to the few posts put up about the mental health of me or my son. Seems to me that we arn't the ones who need a psychologist. To those who are upset I have not returned e-mails, I try to reply to as many as possible but I am getting a truckload of e-mails both positive and negative and it's a little hard to keep them all straite. Please e-mail me again, I will get back to you. I want to thank all of you how have shown compassion and support for Monty, even if messages got mixed up or misunderstood. Some people deal better with animals than they do with people, that's no fault, I do too. But in a situation like this tack is appreciated. There is one more thing I want to try before making the final decision. My doctor is concidering trying a new brand of antidepressants that will help with both depression and GFS. She also did new blood tests which revealed i am extreamly aneimic (not much iron in my blood) which could also be responcible for my chronic fatigue. So she put me on iron pills as well. I want to give this new medication a chance to work before I make any permenant decisions. Monty is one of the few joys in my life and if I give him up, only to discover after changing my meds that it was just a temporary thing that was causing most of the problems, well, those who know what depression can do to you can understand. However, if after if things still are as bad, then I will find a new home for Monty because I want the best for him, and if I can not give it to him, then he desurves someone who can. And if someone cannot understand that, then that is their problem. RANDY, I appreciate very much your concern for Monty, LYNDA you too. If things do not improve, I would like Lynda to have Monty. This is in no way saying I do not trust Randy, I think FAST is a wonderfull organisation (please give Harley big hugs) it's just I have talked with Lynda before and know Monty would be happy with her. And huge hugs to all who offered to take Monty into their hearts and homes! For those who showed support for me and/or Monty, thank you, and for those who just want to flame, get a life.
