I wont be here for a while so I need to get this out now because I can't revisit this memory for a while.

Mia's gone. Found her today. I blame myself entirely. School. Work. My family. Life. Stress. And I haven't had nearly as much time for my bird family as I used to. I feel like I let her down. She loved me more than anything in the world and I couldn't even be there. I don't know if she was sick. Last time I spent time with her, was Monday... everything seemed fine but it was so brief. I failed her.

I am heartbroken. Devastated. I can't breathe.... I can't think about it without feeling like the worst person in the world. I can't think about it without breaking down...

I feel hollow.

I am going to be finding new homes for Ellie and Lulu and moving Capri into a smaller cage downstairs. I can't be in that room.....


It hurts so much...

Im so sorry :sadhug: It is so hard to know when they're ill. Dont do anything right away, decisions made during grief are seldom the right ones.

Oh Joanna .. I'm so, so sorry!! :hug8:

If there's anything I can do for you, just let me know, I'm close enough, and can be there for anything you need. If you just need some time, I could foster Ella, LuLu or Brady for a while, and give you a chance to breath.

Are you having a necropsy done? Might be a good idea, since she shared a room with Capri and the others, just to be on safe side.

Again, if there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

I am so so very sorry :sadhug:

Having just recently lost my girls, I completely understand where your at at this moment.... And I beg of you to please not make any permanent decisions just yet.
I am grateful I waited for my head, my heart, to come out of the chaos, and didnt do the things I had intended at the time.:sadhug2:

Joanna, I know nothing we say can make it better....but you didn't fail her. At this point, we don't even know if she was sick. It could have been something unavoidable no matter how much time you spent with her. Take time to grieve....we all know how much you loved that little sweety, but please don't keep kicking yourself....you don't deserve it :hug8:
