First to Benita, It never gets easier does it? To Mac, What a very beautiful and touching tribute to your precious one. I too count every day with my Princess so I know exactly what your going through. Your little furr-sweetie looks like she is the happiest fert on Earth. For all of the deepest sorrow and gut wrenching pain we feel when our babies go, it is all worth the ride. The fuzzy kisses, the w.w. dances, all of it. My Princess has given me 8 wonderful years of pure fuzzy joy(they ought to bottle that!) Every day that she is still with me is a blessing. I know you feel the same way. May God and all of your ferret friends give you the peace and the strength to get through this when the time comes.. We'll be here for you. Most Sincerely Sue & Crew Princess, Oscar, Nikki, Annie, Sammy, Chance, & Storm From the Bridge, Smokey, Bandit, Boots, Samantha. & teeny tiny kit, Lucky [Posted in FML issue 4117]
