So, if you don’t know, my ferret who’s been ill for the last month (causing me not to post much for my guest period on Alas–sorry, Amp!) was just diagnosed with insulinoma, which is basically a form of pancreatic cancer that affects insulin production. She’s been put on medication which seems to be helping a lot, though I’m not sure how long she’ll live. Sometimes ferrets can live for years with cancer and be perfectly happy and sometimes it can get really bad or invade other parts of the body and kill them pretty fast. It all depends. For now, she seems to be doing better and seems to be happy. I know it will probably get worse and eventually her condition will probably deteriorate, but for the moment, it’s under control.

Anyway, that’s what’s up and that’s what’s keeping me stressed out and busy right now.

Have a picture:

That’s it, baby. Tell that smiley face who’s boss!
