So sorry, Karen, I know how hard it is to lose them. {{{{hugs}}} I hope you don't think I'm being insensitive, but you might want to consider doing a necropsy on her. For me it helps to open them up and see that they were terminal and that nothing could have been done. -KathySorry to say that Henrietta crossed over Rainbow Bridge. Must have been peaceful because her head was tucked in her wing. I drew some fluid from her abdomen, and I can feel something round at one side of her belly that's not on the other. I really appreciate all your kind and helpful words on this thread.
