This is a message from Jean relayed thru Chere of the Ferret-Friends Disaster Rescue International foundation: This is a direct quote from Jean Smith in Spokane, Wa the phone conversation transpired on 12/7/1997 at 7:21PM E.D.T. " The day before the story hit the Internet, I could feel myself breaking - I felt I just couldn't handle this anymore. Then the miracle of the Internet and the fabulous Ferret and Animal people who use it!. Thanks to all of you, the donations and the calls to me, I have not only a second wind but a whole new attitude. I can now go into the Ferret area without crying and wanting to run away. My love and thanks to all of you" signed Jean Smith, Spokane Washington. .......................................
