i would like to thank sukie for advice on how to better prepare for a situation that was coming up. i scurried around and purchased items to help me to function a bit better because of her research. i had looked on web sites and only found people in my situation writing about how there was nothing online to help. sukie came up with a boat load of sites i certainly had not been able to find. i could not believe it i do not think as a whole that we say thank you enough to her often enough. if we did, she would be buried under a sea of e-mails as tall as the empire state building. i don't think i ever took the time to smell the sukie. lol. her donations to the betterment of ferrets deserves a life time achievement award. i would like to vote that she not be permitted to die,in part, because one of the greatest sources of support, wisdom, concern, and ferret knowledge are all bound up in this amazing entity. why she has put up with us for all these years is beyond my understanding. but her brilliance and dedication to ferrets and the sods that love them continues to induce my gratitude and a boggled mind . thank you sukie, for a most kind act; one of many thousands. i think the big wigs in polite ferret sciety should have a thank sukie day at one or the symposeums. i truly do.
