In August I was admitted to the hospital. Chloe had been in her room when I went to the emergency room. When I realized that I would be gone longer than planned I reminded my husband to make sure Chloe had a light on if it was getting dark.

He had thought she'd be okay. He had trouble getting her into her cage at bedtime and figured she'd sleep until light. She tried to get to her cage in the dark and hit the wall. My husband found her, still breathing. He rushed her to the emergency vet but she passed during the car ride. My husband didn't tell me until we were driving home after my discharge (about a week later).

I will never forgive myself for putting her in that situation. She was my heart and soul and we did everything together. I miss my Bean every single day.

Oh, Im so very sorry. Please don't blame yourself, you or your husband couldn't have known, and you obviously must not have been feeling well if you were going to the hospital. :sorrow:

That reminds me of how we lost Doodle Tiel a few years back. Our birds were out of their cage, and just before bedtime-just after dark- a thunderstorm started and knocked out the power. Doodle was spooked and flew into the wall and broke his neck...:(

I'm sorry for your loss and it sounds like a horrible accident that could happen to anyone trying to keep the peace thinking nothing would happen if something is changed once or twice:sadhug:We lost Lurch to escape when we figured from looking he was safely sleeping on his cage and we could run in with a bag of groceries. He must have woke up and came in to see sister and flew right over her head out the door.
