Please don't say that. If I don't get my life together in 2009, my personal little world will end. So 2009 has to be ok.

I hope you're the exception to the course it seems to be taking, DrM.

On the whole, it hasn't been kind so far, though, and I know at least one other person, realistically, probably two, who can expect the death of a close family member in the near future.

Well maybe it'll be kinder to you than it has been to me. I lost my 17.5 year old cat to cancer last month, and my 5 year old ferret just died in my arms about half an hour ago to insulinoma. Can't wait to see what awful things next month brings :(

Labyrinth, I am so sorry. I love ferrets.

We came home from meeting on Sunday three weeks ago to find Eli's guinea pig, Bullseye, dead from unknown causes. His buddy, Fluffy Buckley, is ok three weeks later, so at least it wasn't contagious.

I've been medicating her for it for the past 9 months, so I knew she was sick. The vet told me she'd have about a year and a half when she was diagnosed. She had slowly started to deteriorate in regards to her mobility in the last couple of days. I knew the time was a lot closer than I would have liked, and was actually going to bring her to the vet Monday and most likely have her put to rest. I thought about doing it this morning but she seemed okay for a while so I thought she could at least wait until then. I'm very sad to have her gone, but she's at peace now.

I hope it gets better for you. Hang in there! I didn't start 2009 well at all! Terrible choices, but it's clearing up for me..as I hope it does for you!

Labyrinth . . . ((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))) How sweet is it, though, that she saved you from having to make that decision.

Do you have any photos of her? I'd love to see them. I adore ferrets. Can't have them with my dogs, but they're one of my favorites.

I'm so sorry about your loss. I know how terrible and tough it is to loose a pet you're very close to and love...& she is a very pretty ferret!

Labyrinth, I am so sorry for your loss, she was beautiful. ***HUGS***

2009 is off to a ridicuously horrible start for me as well, and I don't see things getting any better in the near future. Worse, I'm sure. Better, I doubt it.

So I feel ya.

Labyrinth, so sorry for your loss.

2009's been pretty sucky here as well. My last rat died at the beginning of the year - she had tumors and had to be put to sleep, it was awful. Then a few weeks ago my roommate told me she wants her boyfriend to move in with her... and wants me to move out. So now I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to pay rent/buy a house with the pennies I have in savings.... and getting a second job in this economy is of course not an option.....

At least I do have my job, it could be a lot worse.
