I had the privilege to volunteer at a facility that took care of injured and orphaned wildlife. This was a time in my life when I was in a depression and had health challenges. That summer, working with God's little critters made me realize that my issues were pretty insignificant by comparison. I had the opportunity to feed the tiny baby squirrels, one drop at a time (with an eye dropper). Careful, not too much or you will drown them! These little critters were the size of my thumb and almost transparent. I couldn't even see the tiny mouth, but as I held them in my hand, I could feel the pulsing of the heart and the life inside. I fed all four of them with tears running down my face, this is what life is about!. I am truly grateful for this lesson. I have been inspired to write these stories about some of the other animals I helped raise. I hope that I have been able to express their pain and suffering.
