I know! Makes it even more important to preserve them.
If you ever see a dead opossum by the side of the road, stop to check the pouch for babies! But also make sure the possum is actually dead before taking them (or just call a rescue first to be sure).
You can look up rescues here: https://ahnow.org/
Do you think if I play dead by the side of the road some kind person will take my kid to a rescue??‽
American health care is so complicated. Especially when you have kids.
In other countries you just.....go to the hospital because theres universal health care.
But what about the wait times???? So far I've only waited 15 years to see a doctor because I can't afford it
Have you tried being born rich instead?
Only one way to find out.
