Yes, Chickisoup, I do very much understand. I spent the last three days upset about Bud. He was just such a funny boy, following me around and pecking me on the leg or tugging on my pants leg for treats. He'd always been a runt, always not thriving, always prone to infections and never gaining weight. Still he loved to chase the hens and could bite like a demon when he wanted to. I was glad this morning to find that he had passed in his sleep. He hadn't even thrashed around like they always do. Just very peaceful. I told DH that was what went hardest on me. When they were suffering and I had to intervene. Just remember, the last gift of love we can give our animals is letting them go with dignity.

Concerning your BIL. That is really tough. We have a good friend with COPD. It's just a no win scenario and a second friend who is slowly fading away thanks to Parkinson's disease and dementia who's brother is suffering from bone marrow failure secondary to cancer treatment he underwent years ago. I told our friend's wife the other day to make sure her husband got to spend a lot of time with his brother while he still could. So sad. That family is really being hit by a runaway train. You are right. Get your husband to see his brother while there is still time.

Prayers sent.

Sumi said that the new host is having problems. Maybe BYC is too much for them to handle

Oooohhhhh Noooooooo! That's sad!

for your hen and your brother-in-law. That's so sad for his wife, to have the time stolen away so quickly. But a blessing as well.

Agreed, it really rains when it pours. Life is sure funny that way.

So sorry for your BIL.
