I guess we should thank the person who wrote the article and the man who said those quotes, as I really appreciated the positive attitude - seeing the good in this sad story, and being grateful for the sense of community inspired by the whale's presence. :)<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-660409438130929502011-08-19T22:24:29.048-06:002011-08-19T22:24:29.048-06:00Juju,

I think it was because fresh water reduces the whale’s pain from some kind of ailment. I think the doctors need to look at whale diseases that would be less painful by being in fresh water. <br /><br />That’s where I would look to help save the next whale. <br /><br />VinceVincehttp://www.vmres.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-13439058067455467972011-08-18T06:38:03.175-06:002011-08-18T06:38:03.175-06:00That is heartbreaking!

We tend to come together and support each other more in a crisis. We need to figure out how to keep that connection all the time.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.com
