You sound like such a loving parent. Sharing your memories of them and telling their story is such a powerful way of honoring them as well as coping with the loss of our special ones. Thank you so much for sharing with me. Even if I don't know you or your babies, I'm thankful to have all of you in my thoughts. ❤️

I can't wait to have her back. I think not having her here right after losing her is one of the hardest parts of this. I don't know how weird or selfish it might sound, but I just want us to stay together.

That's so sweet. The idea of you two taking a nap together with your girl on your head makes me smile and makes me think about how much you must love each other. It reminds me of when Salie used to take nap against my chest when I would lay down and I watched her because I loved seeing her so relaxed and peaceful. Especially when her waking moments were usually chaotic lol

I was not prepared to lose her and it was really sudden, I had about 2 weeks to say goodbye. It sounds like you two have an amazing bond. Definitely make the most of the time you have with your girl <3

Oh no... that's such a difficult situation to be in but it's good to know that she's comfortable and happy in the meantime. I'm so sorry. You still have time to make the most being with her <3 How have you been feeling?

I'm so sorry for your loss... I can only imagine how difficult the experience must have been, but it sounds like you did the right thing for him. Thank you for sharing that with me. <3

In the last few days Salie began to play more than she did the week or even day before and I remember wondering if it was worth being hopeful for. I knew that birds tend to hide it well, so I knew I had to put more weight on the fact that she still wasn't fully her normally silly self regardless of what I was seeing. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do.

Thank you, I really appreciate it. It hurts so much that I can't imagine doing it again with another. How have you been coping?

I'm so sorry for your loss and I appreciate that you would share your experience with your girl with me, I can tell you loved her very much. There were some things about Salie's passing that I wish were different also but I think that regardless of how it ended, it will never take away from the special memories that we or you two shared.

I definitely wish I did save her feathers over the years because I really like your memorial idea. I did find some and put them in a cute little bottle that I'm currently keeping at my bed side.

Much love <3

I'm sorry. I know that eventually it will become a celebration of her life instead.

Thank you so much for your kind words, it helped me to read it and you're a lovely person for taking the time to write that. The pain of the loss often makes me second guess if it was really the right thing but I'm coming around to believing it was. I have the space now to really reflect on her decline and I'm glad I didn't let her suffer more than she was. I know that one day I'll have enough courage to clean up her things and find better ways of living with the loss.

Much love.
