I am tearing up right now WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME??? lol  |
I know how you feel! Just the thought of losing Max makes me cry! One thing I have to say is that I got Max to help me focus on and love something else when my parrots died and it was the very best thing I ever did. I honestly don't know how I would have survived (I KNOW, it sounds DUMB to be so wrapped up in a bird, but I was) if Max hadn't come into my life. I swore I'd never get another parrot ( partially b/c there just is never any other bird who would be the same and partially b/c, even though I was used to it, they are very messy and very high maintenance companions), but it's been a little over a year now and I'm starting to miss having a feathery companion to hold and pet and kiss on the beak. I never believed I'd get to this point! I'm still not ready to get another one yet, but at least now, I feel like a fog is lifting. On the other hand, if anything happened to Max, I think I'd get another Yorkie immediately, b/c now I know how wonderful and sweet and loving they are and what an absolute joy they are to have around. I can't replace Max, but just seeing a little Yorkie face makes getting up in the morning pure joy!
