					<description>Dear Mary-
I stumbled across your blog after searching for &quot;Modern Ferret&quot; on a whim. Truth is stranger than fiction...from your account of Gabby's loss, it seems that I lost my last fuzzy, &quot;Bert&quot; nearly on the same day that Gabby crossed the bridge. For various health and financial reasons, I, too, decided it would be unfair to take on any new ferrets at this point and time...but we miss them dearly! I was an avid reader of your magazine and loved your writing and Eric's photos. I am sad to hear of the trials and tribulations you have gone through over the past few years, and I will pray for your health and happiness. I am a vet tech with 32 years' experience, but having moved to rural Iowa from Florida almost 2 years ago, I am having no luck finding a job so far in a practice that is ethical and modern. But I won't give up, just as I see you are taking steps to deal with life's lemons. The day will come again when God will give us peace in our hearts and ferrets in our arms! Bless you, Mary, and thank you for all the joy you brought to my life. You are well loved and respected throughout the ferret community!

					<description>Mary Mary Mary.  Just a few years ago life was so much fun.  Why does it have to turn into work?  

I've found that every 5 years life can be totally different.  I don't always like the changes but when I look back over the years things are much better now.

You may not know it but your ferret friends still wish you the best and wonder how you are doing.

					<description>Hi Mary,

You probably don't remember me, I was an avid reader of Modern Ferret and was very sad to see it go.  Like you, a lot has happened in my life too in the years since I last wrote you.  I'm so sorry to hear of so many things falling apart in your life.  I too have had times like that but being older now I have a better perspective on it all and know that every day you get vertical and put one foot in front of the other is a success.  

You have more friends out in the world than you may know about.  If you ever want to get away to Colorado I have room for guests and would be honored to have you visit.
