Yep, heard that one before. The woman alluded to her *possible* psychiatric problems, and lots of psych patients just love to stir things up. They get something out of people spending all that energy on them. I work in a psychiatric hospital, and I have people call on the phone just to stir something up. As soon as I say ANYTHING other than hello (and sometimes THAT sets them off!!!), I get a ranting, raving cussing for 30 minutes!

Best thing to do is say something like "OK, thank you!" and move on.

I think your philanthropy is GREAT!! I have seen teddy bear drives where people collect bears to donate to the police, but haven't seen it as an "adoption" idea. Cool. Keep up the good work!
