Where are the mods??
Both sides need to chill. Snow, the OP doesn't (and never did) seem as "butthurt" as you describe. Perhaps the stress of other things going on in your life are causing more frustration than is necessary.
Rissa, your experiences only offer so much for someone who needs to make a difficult decision regarding the health of THEIR OWN animal. You may give suggestions, but you cannot be angry when someone decided to take a different route.
