Erin,

If this is the second day not eating or drinking the birds needs a vet NOW! The bird is going to need SUB Q fluids and medication ASAP. Start calling now and let us know what is going on.

We all care about you and your bird but it needs help now!

Erin, I'm sorry to come in on this thread so late. How is your bird today? Does the vet have a diagnosis. I, also, am praying for the little one.

ima try n make this as short as possible 4 everyone who cares....
at about 7 or so my mother called me and told me i needed 2 go down there asap.... being that its only 5 minutes away i jumped in the car and went... to my surprise be4 i even got to the vet i was crying... all the times flashed in my head from he great memories troy gave me.... from all the times he helped me & my mom make dinner(a daily thing) and all the times he was there 4 me throughout my high school years growing up... all my heartbreaks i could always count on him 2 lift my spirits when all the other men in my life failed me...
i walked in there with my head down knowing what 2 expect.
the doctor told me that as much as he wished he could do sumthing it was too late... he would be gone in about 15 -30 minutes or so...
i sat there crying... i just wanted 2 see him be4 he went... which the doctor was for sum reason hesitant of letting me be with him...
i wrapped him in his blanket and held him as tears flowed down my eyes...
i didnt know wut 2 do... how could this lil guy just die on me out of the blue...how could he leave me lik this? i blame myself 4 this....
i told the doctor i was going to take him home with me... and the doctor was refusing... i knew in my heart that i could not leave him there 2 die alone...
only becuz i know if i was dying that little guy would be there lying on my pilow next to me every step of the way... i would rather be there watching him and talking him 2 sleep then to leave him 4 good...
i got home with him and sat with him in my arms....
he was a stong bird i know that much... as much as he tried to hold on...
the doctor said he'd be gone in 20 minutes... n he stayed with me until 12 03 a.m. as i sit here trying my hardest to sum up this lil guys life n bravery i really cant.... he was the most loving lil guy....and ill never 4get him.... and i know hes in a good place in birdie heaven....

p.s. thank u 4 everyones concerns i appreciate all of your replies yesterday greatly... -erin

Erin, I'm so very sorry about your baby. YOu should get a necropsy done to find out why he got sick. It can help you to heal. My thoughts are with you.
