I'm so very sorry. You did your best by Paco. May he rest in eternal peace. You'll see him at the bridge.

"By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run fly,
When their time on earth is over and done."

I'm so sorry, I hope you are able to get home safely.

We are all here for you.

You can private message me if you prefer.

I know you know this.... but just remember that sometimes it helps to just let it out with other bird folks that understand.

I don't want to go home, I was holding him and he had a death grip on my finger, his legs.start3d to curl and he was clocking his beak, I ran outside to get some water, they ran out and said he was crashing, he was gone when I got back. I was hysterical. He will be my last parrot. I can't take the heart break again. He loved Stevie Nick's, Age of 17 he hooted like an owl, said pretty boy, what cha doing. How can I go hone to an empty, quiet house and his cage is there. How do I get through this.

The only way through grief is love. Love makes you vulnerable. I respect your current decision to not have another parrot, but have watched a family member mourn a cat for 20 petless years. It's not a course of action I'd recommend.

I rescued him, I can't afford to buy another parrot and the stress of finding food now a days and an avian vet, couldn't go anywhere cause everyone was afraid to feed him. It's best for right now.

I'm so very sorry for your loss of Paco. You gave him a soft place to land when he needed it most.
