I come here today because I know you will all understand the heartache I'm feeling over the loss of my sun conure "Dude" like no one else seems to understand and I need to get this out because we had such a tight bond I'm taking his death harder then any humans death. Dude was MY child we did everything together because I am a stay at home mom we were always with each other and whenever I had to leave the house he would ride in the car with me on my shoulder, he slept in the bed with me (he never wanted to be in his cage at night) and was always hanging on me throughout the day. I keep going back to the other day when he was playing and then stopped and just layed his head over on me as if he was hugging me and letting me know he loved me just as much as I loved him. I am an emotional wreck and am trying to hold it together during the day in front of my son and also at night when my husband gets home from work but I'm falling apart inside. Dudes death was a complete and total surprise and the only comfort I'm getting from his death is that he was right where he always wanted to be and that was with me. He died in my arms Monday afternoon and my world has seemed to stop from that moment on. My thoughts are not clear, I'm sick, sad, can't eat, worried about him and although my family is trying to be supported they are also trying to push me into showing our other bird Sunny all the love and the thing is I want to but I feel so guilty because when we brought Sunny into our home Dude was so protective of me and was very jealous and didn't want me around her and I don't know how to move past that. Dude was my rock, my everything and I don't know how to go about my days without him in them. My husband is also currently looking for another bird not to replace Dude but to help feel this void I'm feeling and I know his intentions are good but truthfully I'm not ready for that yet and my husband doesn't seem to understand.
Well I'm done venting I guess thank you for taking the time to read this and if anyone has any suggestions as to what helps you or has helped you with the grieving process please feel free to share that with me. Like I said earlier he wasn't just a pet bird to me he was My Child and I truely feel like I've lost my baby 😞😭
