Sometimes you just have to think. I've been in Vickie's place, desparate for an answer. It would be very easy to be frustrated by a lack of immediate response. I've been at a loss of what to do when my guys were going through their viral problems. I remember sitting at my computer waiting for an email of some kind that would tell me what I could do to help them. It would have been very easy to shoot out a slightly irrational email. It would have made me feel like I was doing something, even if I really wasn't. We all sometimes do questionable things when we're frustrated. Sometimes we shout, sometimes we shut down. It's not to hard to tell what's going on if you think about it. So what's the point of reacting negatively to it? I see that Vickie did get some answers and that's great. I hope Vickie and her Mochie get through this ordeal with flying colors. There's no use of trading flames over a sick ferret. If you have that much energy, well, then send out some good thoughts to the sick and lost ferrets on the list. You'll feel better doing that instead, trust me. Prayers and good thoughts go out to Mochie and Squeak and all sick and lost ferrets. Roary Albuquerque, NM [Posted in FML issue 4602]
