Now that I can see the keyboard again, sniff, Kim and Helen, I want to say how sorry I am for your loses. Kim, you are so blessed to have such a wonderful and caring vet!! Helen, I sent you and Mondo a ecard earlier and am so sorry it didn't turn out better. I am owned by my first 2 ferrets and can't even begin to imagine the pain of losing them, Death and loss is a very hard, hard thing to have to deal with, but I fully understand when it happens to one of our fuzzy's, it seems harder to take, I too have other animals and when its their time to go, I will understand, but there is just something about ferrets that take more of everything from you and I don't think we can exactly pinpoint what it is, its just something so very special. I can't even begin to try and explain how much joy and love my fuzzy's have given me and so, so much more. They have saved me from so much its unbelievable!! They have made my life so much better, even with the pain I know I'll experience later, I'll always have fuzzy's in my life, I can't see me living without them. I think the joys of having them outweigh the pain of losing them.Not by much, but a little more. For what they have given to me, will never be forgotten, even in death, I will ALWAYS remember and be forever grateful. Bless you Mondo and Zeus, your mom's are sad and in pain right now, but they will ALWAYS remember what you have given them, and that will make them smile again, I guarantee it. Kim and Helen, don't give up on love, there are so many more that need it. You are in my thoughts and prayers always. Love Darlene, Addie & BooBoo [Posted in FML 6283]
