Well, let me first say, this is why people who question things, feel the need to post anonymously. I don't need my email bombarded by a bunch of people who *also don't know this Nell*, to yell at me for asking legitimate questions. Its just rather funny to read posts from other people who admit they never met Nell, yet feel the need to chastise me for asking questions. But see, the thing is, you can't have it both ways. I am a member of the fml. So is this Nell person. So therefore, she is asking me for money. And tons of other people who wouldn't know her if they tripped over her. And not just once is she asking, and not for any small amount. And for me to question all of Nell's problem after problem after problem... you call that negative and say I am flaming her? Sure, have some people have a string of bad luck, yup, unfortunately they have, its awful. But, hello, that's what scammers also do, haven't you heard? Pulling on your heart strings while asking for money. Hmmm. I wasn't raised to just do what others tell me to do, I was raised with common sense and a brain. And part of that means asking questions! Nell, I am sorry you feel my questions were "unkind". I did not say anything cruel or hurtful to you, I simply asked questions. I don't know you from a hole in the wall. I said my concern was for the innocent animals, it still is. You still don't answer my questions, how you say in other posts how dangerous it is over there, how you've had workers steal from you and possibly hurt your animals - but in another post, you say you feel comfortable leaving some of your pets there for several months (or longer) while you are safe in the US. It just all doesn't make sense to me. And instead of getting answers... well, this is called causing a diversion. Like trying to put the focus on the questioner as being out of line, while not answering legit questions. It just still leaves one wondering. *If* this entire scenario is true, with all these thefts and problems and such, I do wish you luck. I hope you and *all* your pets make it safely back to the US.
