Unfortunately the little guy would rather be with her I'm sure and is counting on her. Being placed is going to be extremely stressful on the poor thing and may send him into a tailspin and he may NOT recover then. I'm being pretty harsh, but, I think she needs to put her feelings aside right now. Trust me, Mike and I had to do that this summer and it was the most painful thing we've ever done. I wish him luck where ever he lands.
