I've already posted my opinion (which is typically my boring "we don't know the entire story"). But I would like to point out that in a recent "help" thread, we found out later that she was posting her thread as she was calling the vet. She never mentioned that in the post. Aside from all the other things we don't know (financial status, vet proximitry, pet experience, etc), we also don't always know if they've called the vet and/or are waiting for a return call. Someone in crisis cannot always think of every detail to put in their thread. While I agree with Amber's core message, we really need to keep an open mind. |
