I then received an email from Elaine (UE) who I was already in discussion with about replacing the terribs, and here what she wrote me:

    “I have just been in contact with Cheri and she has requested an invoice
    for the replacement terribilis. So.. you will be getting your terribilis thanks to her generosity

    It is uplifting to know that we do still have some people who genuinely
    care about others(even those that they do not know personally)and they
    help others in the hopes that when they are in "need", someone will step
    up and help them out.”

    Cheri did write me personally, to see if I was comfortable with this... And in exchange for a pair of terribs once I start breeding. I was humbled by her kindness. And I am thankful for her generosity.

    Cheri, you and Michael Lawrence have really shown me how close the frog community can be, and how we take care of each other. You have gone above and beyond with this gesture. I will not forget it. You’re a beautiful being, and a friend. And you’ve shown me once again how close the Frog Forum community is.

    It was important to me to share this with everyone here.

    Thank you, Cheri,

    Eric
    Cheri,

    That was a very kind gesture on your part. That is what makes this community so wonderful!

    Cheri is unimaginably kind...I am so lucky to have a friend like her, as are we all. <3

    Cheri recently did a similar favor for me in regards to the blue eyed White's we've recently brought home, despite my protesting. I promised in return to take the best care of Paul i could, and provide him with a good home until she can come pick him up. My point is: I wasn't even really in need, and Cheri helped me out. This I will never forget, I just hope I can repay her some day.

    I would like to thank you as well, Cheri, for helping Eric out like this. It is so refreshing to get to see someone who genuinely cares, as Elaine said (from the email). Big props! <3

    She is indeed a wonderful being. And she does it naturally.

    I feel honored to help out Eric. I consider him a friend and I always try to be there to support a friend. I spoke with Eric on the phone a few minutes ago and his frog is still alive and moving around. He's going to treat her wounds as best as possible and hopefully she pulls through. If she survives animals are very adaptable and she could learn to live with the disablities. I'm still sending him another frog just so he can keep his breeding project alive and well. If she pulls through that would be great and he'll have another to add to the collection. Eric and his frog will definately be in my prayers.

    Bravo on your generosity and kindness Cheri.

    I'm also super happy to hear that Eric's frog is in a condition that he's going to try to save it. I'm sure it could learn to live with a foot missing if it can recover from the wounds. Me and my own gimpy frog are pulling for her.

    Thank you, Ebony, and my fellow Canadian Brian. The frog is alive this morning, in a bad shape, but she's moving and there's hope. I have also moved her (she's too young to be sexed but whatever) from a carrying case to a 10 gallon I had lying around. If she gets better in 30 days more or less, we will put her back with her group.
