Devastation

Dale sorry to hear about your situation. I wish I had some words of wisdom. I wish you the best and you will be in my thoughts.
 
As I offered in the other forum.... I am saying the same as Terri :) I am willing to foster the reptiles til you can get them back. I am not sure about the breeding part because I would be scared of messing something up and feeling bad but I sure would give it my all for you. You are a great guy and have some great friends :) Let us have the honor of helping you out til your up and running full force again. If you ever just want to talk or anything.... just ask or give me your number and we can talk :) DeeAnna
 
I can help foster some animals too. I'm in the Milwaukee area, so not too far away. Just let me know if you need he help.

I'll keep you in my thoughts and hope your health stabilizes soon.
 
Dale, I can't tell you how sorry I am to hear this. I've sent you a PM saying more.

Big Hugs For You.

Izzy
 
Oh Dale! I am so sorry to hear about this. I only wish I lived closer or had more space to take in some of your babies for you - especially Bo. But I am heartwarmed to see so many people here offering their help in any way that they can. This really isn't just a forum - it is it's own family - and the outpouring of love and support really makes me believe that there are still good people left in this world.

I sincerely hope that you are able to work something out with someone here or even elsewhere to take care of all your critters while you are unable to. I may not be able to assist in that department - but you know I am always here if you need someone to talk to - via PM's or chat or you can call me anytime.

Love ya Dale!
 
Dale I am at such a loss for words. I only hope you can find the emotional strength to pull through this.

If I could, I would foster your animals in a heartbeat, Bo would love it in Bonnie Scotland chasing rabbits till his heart was content.

I am sending you the most heart felt please get better soon wishes I can muster up. Thinking of you...
 
Dale, I'm so sorry for the situation you've been put in... If you need anything at all, let me know, and I'll do everything I can to make it happen.
 
Dale, sorry to hear about this. Hope you get better soon man. I suggest you take Terri up on her offer, let her house the animals for a while, then get them back when you can. Hope you can hang around.
 
dale ... I wish that was something I could do :( Situations like this are when the physical distances between us all really become apparent. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I wish I could do more. ((((((DALE))))))
 
Dale!!! You must have been posting this while I was sitting right here at my computer, watching an old black & white french film, and nodding off to sleep!!!
I am sincerely sorry that I was not surfing the site well enough to catch this. I was busy probing your brilliant mind....and you had this storm going on in your heart.
I thought that that 18 minute link you gave me was very beautiful, very touching,....and, well...pretty sentimental. Very sentimental.
Oh, Dale. I'll be thinking about this all day. :real tear in real eye starts to roll out:
Now I have to go back and look at all your photos on facebook, so I can picture the destination for all of my good wholesome deep south white magic, that I'll be sending your way. Must...focus...on...coag lab results. Fix platelets and clotting factors.
Hang in there man, you have friends.
 
You're in my prayers man, albeit distant ones from the middle east.
Life is worth living, and you will have other reptiles. I know that it's one of the few things that tend to help you hang in there.
I know that most of our words mean squat in the face of your reality... but they remain the same. Live another day, see another dawn- make every day a victory.
My sincere hope of your quick recovery and return to the herping ranks man.
 
Truly, I am humbled. I'm at a loss for words.

This bears repeating: ME, AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. :D

I'm grateful for the support in ways nobody here will ever realize. I'll be in touch, via PM, with some of you who have offered to help.

If anyone doubts that a sense of community can't possibly exist on computer networks, just point them to this thread.

A SINCERE thank you to everyone. If y'all continue to get me this emotional, I just may stroke out because of it.

(But that's been your collective plan all along, hasn't it?) ;)

I can't say it enough....thanks!

Dale
 
uh oh! He has discovered our plans! Now we have to play nice ;) Loss of words.... omg! Write it on the calender ;)

In all reality it is so great to see so many ppl careing :) It does give hope to one for the future of ppl. There are some really great ppl left in the world :)

Huge hugs Dale and I am sure that you will be able to get all your babies into foster care and know they will be very well taken care of :)
 
If y'all continue to get me this emotional, I just may stroke out because of it.

Absolutely forbidden!
We require a consistency dosage of snark, and you are a quality provider. :) Seriously though, sending all the well wishes I can from down here. You'll make it through this, and be back with your collection and Bo soon.
 
I'm sorry to hear you are passing through difficult times Dale. Be certain this is just a temporary bumpy road. Be well soon!
 
I'm sorry I'm late getting to this--but I'll add my best wishes for a speedy recovery! If I lived closer I'd take in some snakies for you as well--I can hardly imagine having to part with my animals. I find that they help me to relax and be centered, I hope you at least find a way to visit them to help speed your recovery!
 
Damn, Dale. I don't know what to say. I know you're too strong minded to let this get you too down. You'll be OK...only the good die young and you don't qualify...;)

If there is anything I can do, let me know. I know it's not much I can do from way the heck out here, but...I'll do what I can.

Take it easy-
Chris
