This conference is great. Meeting the people I've read on the FML and emailed w -- it'ss a big pleasure. Several of the lectures have been very useful, and it's been great to meet peoples' ferrets here and there. I've seen some enORmous guys. A couple of the young women vets have talked with me about donating equipment and supplies to the diagnostic lab in Addis!!! So far the possibilities include microscopes, centrifuges, and associated supplied! Yesterday evening I got some painful news from Addis, but it is pretty well resolved. Tsige was secreting away things of ours. But it turns out that she is finally pregnant! She's so embarrassed and upset about taking things w/o control. Saba and I think it's nesting behaviour, and we've all chosen to accept it that way and go on from here. [Posted in FML 6149]
