Kelleen, I just read your post about Lightstar and I can't help crying for both of you. I truly hope and pray that things work out (to take two in such a short time would be too cruel). I'm a daily lurker but I have to come out of hiding to tell you that there are two things I truly believe.. 1- God, Goddess, or whatever power you believe in, does not give you more than you can handle. All the horrible things that happen are meant to make us stronger and more appreciative of the joyous things in our lives. 2- What you do comes back to you three-fold. All the love and attention that you've shown to your fuzzies will be returned to you three times stronger. About the person who said you were a bad mother to your Racy...as the prophet said "Don't let the turkeys get you down". You know the truth and those people who read your posts know how much you care for your children, and the rest be damned. We're praying for you and Lightstar Melissa, Gary, Merlin ("only a dog") and Meeko (Attack ferret extraordinaire) [Posted in FML issue 1428]
