Our Dolittle is sick.  Reply with quote  

Jrmno1, I have passed your poems around to all the bird people I know. It gets to me each time I read them and I've hoped and prayed that "last journey" doesn't happen around here for such a very long time. I don't think I'll be getting that wish. Our Dolittle is not well, hasn't been for over a week and I am guessing he won't be here by Monday. He started having seizures last week. I've been trying to get him to eat since yesterday with out much luck. No eating or drinking really but his last seizure was late last night. He's on Baytril and something for pain-inflammation the vet gave us last Friday but he's worse than ever. I'm trying handfeeding formula, Jucy Juice, water and Pedialyte. I'm not giving up but he just looks so bad.

I can not find the words to tell you how much it hurts to think of lossing one of these guys, Something in all of us suffers when one passes like this. More then just our thoughts and prayers are with you and Dot tonight.
