Hello to the FML well it took me 3 years but I'm back to the fml . three years of surviving from one day to the next. To those of you who were absolutely convinced that I was just scamming all of you in caring for my kids. I was receiving $339 a month from state welfare, my average bills were $375 a month. with only a couple of exceptions I was able to work a deal with most them to pay what I could and make up the rest later. Starting next month I will start receiving SSI / Disability. I live in constant pain ( on 60m Morphine a day ), I can't walk more than 3 blocks without resting fore a couple of hours, I can't stand longer than 10 minuets without collapsing, or sitting more than 15 minuets unless it's a very comfortable chair, I can't pick up and carry any thing heavier than 15lb unless it's lift and set down again but then about the fourth time I bend over I'm done. If some of you still think this is B.S. then maybe you should experience it yourself. All that being said I would like to thank very very much those of you who were kind and generous with food, bedding, treats, toys, and funds !!! I wish return this kindness any way possible and be helpful to others who are in need of help and I will always be available to rescue those ferts in need in the southwestern WA area to ether care for or transfer them to others who can do more than I. To Serra ferret please look in on Sandy I had to put her to sleep last June due to a re-laps of a illness that hit her last Jan. (I never new what that illness was because the person that helped with that vet bill refused to pay for the test that would have identified the illness she was so certain it was inselanoma that when the test came back negative she decided that this vet "recommended by two rescues " was "incompetent") Sandy was 5.5 years old, she had seen the country side through the windshield of a semi truck, and had achieved matreark status she was preceded by Pogo, Samantha, Barnaby and a close friend named Herby. Herby and Barny were always getting into things so his dad and I decided when ever we saw a shooting star it was Herby and Barny knocking another star off the shelf. again thanks to all of you for your support. Dooks to all Rich Stephens & the fuzzy sapiens Sam, Sydney, Mareta missing Pogo, Samantha, Barnaby, and Sandy [Posted in FML 6226]
