I WANT to write this letter to you because I know how upset you must be.
I am an animal lover as well, but I always think there must be a way to make the crisis stop. It must be like an actual plague for these poor animals which aren't having a long life, but I always think of the baby animals that have got the foot and mouth illness.
The main thing is that if any farmer is reading this letter, then please don't give up, please.
I just hope that it won't carry on for long.
