I can't express how much love and warmth I feel when after taking a break from the page, I come back to see you writing to me. My husband loves you all too. It is you all who understand most what we are going through. People who have no pets or other pets that aren't birds do not understand the deep connections birds make to us and us to them. Losing Sunshine was like losing a human, not a pet.
Sunshine grew with us and with our mistakes in life and with him as I found him when I was 22. I was young and carefree and Steve and I had recently got together. Luckily, I was raised with a cockatiel in the house so I was already a bird person. I've learned so much over the last 20 years about the nature of birds and their care and I have to thank Sunshine for that and of course, wonderful forums like these. Thank you for the cushion and thanksfor catching me as I fall. Love you all,
Michelle
