It has taken me a couple of days to be able to write this.My dear sweet Jimmy has flown over the rainbow bridge.I think I’m all cried out but every time I think of him passing in my arms the tears will fall.I have to comfort myself by thinking about the life that he had with me compared to the first 25 years of his life.I kinda consider him a rescue because he was being kept in a cockatiel cage with one perch one sorta toy and food(seed) and water dish's on the floor.He did not know how to fly,he acted like veggies were gifts from heaven.Once he was in a BIG cage with lots of toys and food choices and an open door,he blossomed.Before long and after wing flapping practice he was flying to me at my desk or the couch!Jimmy made my heart happy each and every day of the 12 years he was here.Jimmy had been having spells of weakness and keeping his balance but each time with special attention to his diet I was able to pull him through. I fed him more soft foods and yes dammit I fed him some WD.I ask myself if that had anything to do with his passing, I just don’t know and If it did-it was given to him out of love and ignorance. I'm so very sorry Jimmy I Loved you so very much and wanted nothing but the best for you. Fly high sweet Jimmy, find Ummm and give him my love.You will always have a special place in my heart.

I'm sorry you lost him but 12 happy years after all he'd been through is awesome and he passed in your arms knowing he was safe and loved till he crossed:sadhug:

Oh Bonnie, it's hard to see those that we saved go, really hard. Jimmy, fly high and free without pain nor illness. Say high to all of the others we have lost.

I am so deeply sorry.

There is no doubt that he made your heart happy, conversely, there is no doubt that you made his heart happy in the same way.

Wings Forever Proudly High, Jimmy....

Oh no, I’m so very sorry for your loss of Jimmy.:sorrow:It’s good you were with him at the end, and I hope you can eventually find comfort in your memories of him. He had a happy life with you and knew he was loved, which is the best any of us can do. Sending big hugs your way.

Bonnie, when one of us hurts, we all hurt. Jimmy was loved so much and we know you did everything you could for him.

Wings up high, handsome boy. Look after your Mama from the heavens. :sadhug:
