Still In Need

General
A lot calmer now, still need lots of help.
I think I'll just take to begging people for their change. I need like $200. There's a better option than surgery, a shot every four months.
I got a hold of someone awesome, she explained a lot of things to me.
Mostly, in a nutshell, I was lead wrong and ferrets live to be 7-8, not like cats, which average 11-15. As such, she's very old and like very old humans and heart disease, ferrets get adrenaline disease. It just means...they're closer to being ready to go. Surgery is a bad idea and the reason why medicine 'never works' (as told to me by my vet) is because it's simply something that comes with their final years.
The injections may let her keep her fur, then again, she may be a naked baldy who will need sweaters. It's a sign or mortality and....yeah. It's not as dire as I was lead to believe. It's not life ending, it just comes near the end.
My heart is still much broken. I'm losing my poor Furzles slowly. I just hope she doesn't waste away like the humans I loved did as they died. I'll do all I did for them for her too. Bathe her, lift and move her around when she no longer has the strength to do so herself, even feed her with an eyedropper if she wants or needs.
I have to say I'm being a bad mommy right now and playing favorites, as Furzles gets slightly more time with me and more snuggles.
