Subject: [ferrethealth] Buster is gone
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
I lost Buster Brown this past week. I have been out of town, and the family
members who were watching him had said he was losing some weight...then over
the last weekend he gradually got weaker and weaker and finally lapsed into
a comatose state, and only partly woke up to hear me on the phone telling
him it was OK to let go. He had been diagnosed with adrenal over a year ago
and had a melatonin implant, but seemed fine if sometimes tiring quickly,
till I left town this time about 3 weeks ago. He has always tended to pine
for me a bit so my family didn't really think much of the weight loss till
apparently too late. But he slept away peacefully. I just hate it that I
was not there for him. My friends here in Cali tell me possibly he was
hanging on for my sake and my absence gave him liberty to quit fighting the
adrenal.
"Buster Brown the Little Clown" was interred this morning in my back yard
with a fairy statue on his grave. He was about 5 years old. His brothers
seem to be fine, according to my husband. Thanks all for the help when I
have asked for it.
Peace
