I wish he could have lived longer....

Today my lady gouldian finch, beeper, died. I had been treating him for air sac mites, and just when I thought he was getting better he died. I had only had him for two months but I loved him so much, him and his sister were the youngest of my flock. I saw him this morning and I could tell I wouldn't have him for much longer, but I had to go school. As soom as I saw him I knew. I had him in a little hospital cage, he was all tucked in the corner but it looked like he died in peace. He will be missed.

It's true people here all understand just how important a bird is to your life. Although when my BCC passed away I hadn't joined this forum yet. I posted it on my motorcycle forum because I felt I had to tell someone. And I couldn't physically speak about it to talk to my friends on the phone due to all my crying. But, because they had known me a few years and knew what she meant to me, I did get quite a bit of sympathy from people who wouldn't normally care about a bird.

So sorry for you. You did the best you could. Birds are very fragile creatures. And only another bird person can really know how these wonderful beings can touch our souls.

I don't know how I missed this post, I am very sorry for your loss! Beeper is flying free in birdie heaven now. He was loved by you in the short period you had him. So long Beeper....
