Dudettes, I think upon the holy scripture of bumper stickers..."Shit Happens." It does. It really does. Every life that touches us may be there for a lifetime or for a second. Broken relationships, death, pain. It's there because we are supposed to learn and grow from it. Sometimes I want to denounce my faith when I see the sewer rats of humanity. But life isn't peaches and cream. Hold the love and memories and they will live on. The bonus is that you will grow more and learn more if you are open to receiving the lesson. Hugs to both of you. A thousand fold.

Thank you so much! *hug*
We haven't had Tookie very long, but he was special. When I found him dead in the bottom of the cage I was filled with so much guilt! Had I not fed him enough? Did I not love him enough?
But I still have Narci--the other lovebird--and my cats.
I cried to mourn Tookie. But I am dreading telling my bf's daughter, since Tookie was really her bird (she chose him and named him).
My heart is with you in your time of loss as well.

I feel for ya Jem-
Right there with ya. I just lost one of my infant squirrels, Lemon, this morning. She out of the blue had a seizure and died. I was hysterical. Among other tactics, I gave her mouth to mouth...nothing. Nada. Ziltch. She's gone. It sucks. I was so pissed I actually told the Goddess to take back all my powers of witchcraft and denounced my beliefs and cursed every universal force I could get out of my mouth within my tears. I felt like shit. I am still rehabbing her sister, Spice, who seems to be doing okay. Of course, once I got myself together again, I told the Goddess, "Uh, scratch that. Didn't mean it...Friends?" I'll miss my little Lemon. Sorry about your bird. As you said, again, it sucks.
