My baby died yesterday

I cried while reading your post, my heart is breaking for you. I am so sorry for your terrible loss, but thankful you have come to us. We truly understand the agony and are here for you.


junglenutcracker, I am so sorry for your loss as well. My heart goes out to you.

You both are in my thoughts.

Jess was a Congo grey. I'm sorry Jim you went through it and anyone else who did and I wish I'd kept a journal of all the cute things he said like Miss Spaghetti" or when he'd come down from his cage to me on the couch and say Hi Booby in that sweet voice he had. I had a song I made up for him and he'd Bob his head up and down and flap his wings when I sang it. You're probably right about the chlamydia. The first time he did so well with the medicine, a little bit of apple cider in baby food and Sunshine Factor. Had s bad night but it's probably because my good friend who has been helping me get through it is going on vacation but promises to email while in Jamaica. She's going to make a memorial for him in her back yard where her cat and dog are buried. Well just rambling on. Thanks again. Just miss him so bad. Thankful for you guys and friends and kitties and the thought he's with God.

I am positive that Jess,and my Smokey,and Al's ( Wrench13)Max,and all the others who's fids have been taken years before their time,are now all flying across Rainbow Bridge together,looking down on us,thanking us for all the wonderful years they had with us.
And I bet Jess is bobbing his head to his favorite song also!

Again,a lot of us know and feel your pain,and we are here for you!

What a wonderful thought. You help me so much. Jess is a Smokey and Max kind of guy. Sounds like the new feathered rat pack. I wrote a long letter to him ...at the end listing all his cute phrases and his belly laugh..even mimicking my cough...dry cough..deep cough...he knew them all. I'm not sick I'm fine.
 
Nutcracker, I made a donation in Simba's name, too. Cornell University's Vet program, and directed it to be used for Parrot Heath studies and programs. Your Simba died knowing how much he was loved.

Nutcracker, I wish I never had to make those posts again. Having gone thru the loss of a fid is so gut wrenching ( no pun intended). The donation is not a huge amount, but it marks the passing of a loved parrot. By flagging it for Parrot related research it wont go to making a fatter chicken or juicyier turkey, but to research, to understand parrot diseases, conditions and cures and treatments. But I gotta tell you lately, its been far to often, and I fully expect Cornell to put up a wing ( pun intended) in my honor ( kidding).

writing s pretty long letter helped.

I wrote a letter to my dear Citron, Allie. The circumstances of a dog attack were devastating when he passed. The letter is still enclosed with a stack of pictures; in nearly 20 years I've opened the envelope twice.
 
Thoughts and prayers with you and for Jess, Over the Rainbow Bridge May we all be reunited.
 
There are no words to make it better so I'm just sending a big hug x

Just checkin' in with you.
I was thinking about you and decided to drop by.
May I ask how you named Jess? For some reason I was wondering.
 
I'm so sorry that you lost your little guy, I hate when someone has to go through this because I've been there and I know how it feels. I lost my baby green cheek suddenly last year and I was devastated. Little by little it does hurt less, but I still think about her every day, but they are all happy thoughts now. And yes, talking to people does help. Talk as much as you need to, everyone on the forum is here to listen. We understand what you're going through and are certainly here for you.

For sure I'd be a mess without you guys. Thankyou Ellen..it's true what you say. My cleaning just knocked on my door and gave condolences. Jess would give him a big wolf whistle every time he came and he knew he had to first go in and spend a few minutes with Jess first thing ...

My ex-boyfriend got him for me in 1998. We were sitting there and he just said Jessie. His name at the pet shop had been Excalibur. Thanks for asking. I'm better after writing the letter and getting this support..also got permission to use this incredible sunset picture by a Facebook friend in his memorial where his cage was.
