Title: The worst day for DTF members
Post by: Dr. DTVT on July 08, 2023, 10:27:36 PM
Geez, just based on FB a lot of you have had to process some major hardship the past 24 hours.  Much love to you all - and the ones I don’t know about.

I stopped checking FB a while ago so I don't know everything that has happened—that being said, I've got nothing but love and support for you Joe and other folks having a difficult time. :heart

For everyone without a FB account, would someone care to illuminate this?

There are some posts in the chat thread at the top of the GD page.

From memory:
-King lost his dad a couple of weeks ago, and his cat yesterday
-Jamesman lost his brother yesterday
-I lost my mom last weekend
-Puppies had a friend get hit by a truck while bike riding
-Heffie had to have his dog put down yesterday

There's some other recent stuff as well that I missed

Oh man, I thought there was an inside joke I was missing.

Super bummed to hear all of that–please, everyone, take care!

It's been an awful time for me and so many others. I appreciate the good vibes.

I love you guys.

And I hope you all take this in the spirit it's intended:   I have birds.  Budgies.   A couple months ago, "Bubbles" laid five eggs; two hatched and we have two new additions to the group, Tornado ("'nado") and Sushi.   Now, we've got three more eggs in the nesting box.  It's hard to tell, but it looks at first glance that two of the three might be hatchings.

The circle of life.

I vote they be renamed to Sally, Maise, Papashmegland, Mamalahh, Jamesbro, and Puppypal. That’s right, get a sixth egg somehow.

I'm really sorry to hear about all the hard times going around right now. I'm not super dialed into the Facebook group or anything, but I send nothing but love to this entire community. :heart

Damn Hef. My thoughts go out to you and your family. I hope everyone is doing okay.

I echo the thoughts of others here going out to those in need.  I often forget about the chat thread and had no idea people were hurting so badly.

I'm so sorry for everyone's pain and I'm sending out so much love.   :heart

Well, the hits keep coming…tomorrow morning I will be taking my dog Archer to cross the rainbow bridge.  Please refrain from mentioning this on FB until I do tomorrow.

Well, I was lucky, but in the spirit of the topic, I could have died last night.

I left home to go to a concert. Started to pour immediately after. Got the message, and I turned back home basically 5 minutes after I left. A road was blocked by a branch, so I took the other way to reach home from the other side. I made a turn.... and a huge tree fell down on my car.

Car completely destroyed. Me? just a minor and very tiny little scratch on the ankle and nothing else. I was about to die 2 minutes of walking distance away from my home because of the SECOND severe and violent storm happened in the SAME DAY.

hese violent and sudden events are becoming frequent more and more. It could have cost me my life, it cost me just my car. Do I have to be afraid to go outside when it rains now?

Holy crap man.  Wow.  Glad it was just the car that got the worst of it.
