Good thoughts needed

[Coyote_Bandit]

My Quaker parrot has an upper respiratory infection. He's at the vets under a heat lamp getting an anti-biotic nebulizer and probably some IV fluids. Vet advises that today he hasn't wanted to take food or water. The vet also advises that the next 24 hours are critical and he gives the bird a 50/50 chance of recovery.

This little bird has had a hard life. He was "rescued" from a pet store that was going out of business. His previous owner knew little about birds and neglected him. Still, he's a good little bird. Not too nippy. Not obnoxiously loud. Will do his step ups. Smart. Observant. Inquisitive.

Please send him warm thoughts and good vibes. If you believe in a higher power, then please say a prayer for this little guy. May he have the will, the strength, and the care required to survive and heal.

Thanks.

7. UPDATE

Thank you all for your warm wishes and good thoughts.

The vet called this morning to let me know that Chuckles passed away during the night. I know he's in a better place now and I believe that I did the best I could to give him an opportunity to recover.

Safe journey my friend. I love you still and I will miss you. You'll always have a special place in my heart.
