I'm quoting the entire paragraph that contains the wording that I and others are concerned with. Sukie has refused to respond to our requests for information about the ferrets LOST. "Lost," in the context that Sukie used it implies death. It does not imply that the ferret escaped from the house because the wrong kind of Lupron was given to them. We have asked for information about these DEAD FERRETS. We have not asked about her morals regarding privacy. I think it's pretty clear now, given Sukie's lengthy dissertation about everything EXCEPT these LOST ferrets, that her original statement was wrong and made just to be dramatize her point. Unless Sukie wants to repeat that ferrets have died from receiving Lupron, I can put this topic to rest knowing that no ferrets have died because they were given Lupron.
