As most of you know I hosted the raffle for Helen with helping hands ferret rescue. During this time Helen had to adopt out and foster a lot of her ferrets (she did have 52) so she could manage her own health issues. Helen is a very dear friend of mine, so taking in 3 of her ferrets was very special to me, it was like a part of Helen with me. These 3 little guys traveled from Pennsylvania to Oklahoma, which is a long journey for ferrets and humans. I have had them since Father's Day. Milo is the oldest of the 3 (4) and he has recently developed a very large tumor in his left kidney. My vet believes it could either be carcinoma or lymphoma. We should know any day what the results are. This tumor is large about the size of a golf ball. in turn it has compromised his walking abilities. He can still walk but no well or far. Bless his heart he still manages to get to the liter pan. The only chance Milo has is to remove the left kidney. This is a critical surgery and a costly one, but its his only chance to have a quality life. If any one would like to help Milo you can go to my web page and choose from wonderful bedding pieces, toys, or ferrety human items to help with Milo's surgery. This came on very suddenly, Please find it in heart to give Milo a second chance for a wonderful life. He has traveled to far to leave so soon. With purchasing bedding, toys or any item its a win-win situation, you are helping Milo and getting something in return for yourself or your ferrets. here is the link www.theferretschoicebedandesign.bravehost.com/ -- Crazyferretmom (julie johnson) and the 13 fuzzbutts Memory of Sidney Sue, Slinky, Allie Boy, Polo Man, Roscoe, & Fiona Only gone in body, not spirit. please check out my quality, affordable bedding www.theferretschoicebedandesign.bravehost.com/ [Posted in FML 5692]
