So let us hope first that someone he knows who knows him will be taking him in so they can grieve together.
That is my hope too.
I'm glad to hear your good news, Sparky. I hope they come through for the others as well.
I'm sorry to hear of your sister in law, Fred.
I think Theo said she might be up for taking Mr. Peabody earlier in the thread.
She did, and with Nanita's offer that might be more viable for her circumstances.
I hope they figure out what's going on with your SiL, Fred, and can fix it.
I was lucky to meet Ginger not long after joining the board, when a conference took me to Atlanta. She was very kind to a shy stranger. It's good to see plans for Mr. Peabody developing.
I missed Theo saying that! Theo, could you take him if I can take care of the financial aspects of his care? ETA: Also messaged Theo on FB.
We would probably not be the absolute best home for Mr. Peabody, but I would take him before I'd let him go anywhere that wasn't good for him.
I'm so glad to hear that there are people here who can help make sure Mr. Peabody is going to be well cared for. I've been worrying about that all day, so it was good to read all of these posts.
I feel so sad for the little guy - there's no way to make him understand what's going on and why everything is changing.
How to know when you're lax in your Buffustas-ness: the last post since the last time I checked into Natter said "Welcome Francesca!" which means it was when SJ had the baby. Today I was popping my head in to see if there was news about Ginger. Clearly, I am no longer good at this.
Still ... uhm, Hi! Nice to see the old place still busy ..
I think the thing that has always impressed me most about Ginger is the way she uses her calm competence to step in as the voice of reason and put fears to rest. I just wish we could pool our physical resources to buoy her up in return the way she has so many of us in an emotional sense.
Lurking, sending love to Ginger, and sending love to all of you.
the way she uses her calm competence to step in as the voice of reason and put fears to rest.
Yes. You can always count on her to be knowledgeable and sensible. That's not a small thing.
