Posted March 6, 200718 yr Jim as been sick this past few days, we had a trip to the vets today and hes had an injecton of antibio and painkilers, he has a problem with his head and balance, not a stroke but maybe an infection on the brain, he cant move his head properly and stands with his head tilted to the left, im really worried that he may not get better but i will be keeping an eye on him and will do all i can for him.Ive taken a few days off work. He's breaking my heart the little budgie....... I will keep you informed of his progress.
March 6, 200718 yr I will include Jim in my prayers and wish him a speedy recovery. How lucky is he to have such a loving owner!

March 7, 200718 yr Author its been a horrible day, jim has lost the useof his legs, i dont think it will be long before he is taken and im absolutly gutted, i cant stand the thought of it hapening and its so quiet without my little mate,its a small town where i live and without sounding like a total sado i dont have any friends here, my wife is upset too, i bought jim after my father died and he has helped me so much since and i feel that i am letting jim down as i cant make him better. Life is so hard at the moment
March 7, 200718 yr remember we are on this earth for a short time and whatever our purpose it when we pass from this earth our purpose has been finished in a physical form but never taken from our hearts. We recently lost our 18 yr old dog and the pain is very fresh so I completely know what you are going through. You have done so much for him as he you never thing a thought that you could have done more - he will rest on your shoulder everyday and in your heart is a spot held forever for little Jim.
March 7, 200718 yr Author Jim passed away about 30 minutes ago, i held him all day and he passed in my hand, i cant quite put down how i feel right now but i would lke to thank you all for your comments and help since i have been posting here...special mention for when jim was awarded budgie of the month one christmas, i was so proud.
