Heartbroken: Mae passed away this morning

Posted by Cindy AZ on 8/9/2024, 10:15 pm

Mae didn’t respond to treatment and died from cancer this morning. She went very fast. My husband and I are heartbroken. It’s going to be so tough tomorrow morning and her not being there waiting for petting and her breakfast.

Cookie stared and stared at Mae’s empty cage.

Necropsy already done, no surprises so far. Lab results in a week or two. The vet said everything points to the cancer developing recently and growing fast.

We really hoped the treatment would work and she’d be with us a while longer. We’re still in shock even though we knew it was bad.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Having lost Spikey from cancer 3 months ago I really understand your pain. Our feathered friends are so very special and we all know the void they leave when its their time. It is not easy but try and think about your good times together and the bond you shared. I am sitting here crying with you.. so so sorry

I am so, so sorry! I was hoping that things were turning around for you all.

Glad she went fast, for her sake, to fly free but not for her flock.

Good thoughts for the rest of you...

Gina

Oh my gosh. I'm so very sorry. Like you, I'd really hoped and thought the treatment would help her. My heart breaks for you, your husband, and for Cookie. Nothing makes this better, or easier. I do know, Mae had the best home and the most love, and wherever her spirit is, she will never forget that.

Cinty, that's so sad, I'm so sorry that you didn't have more time with her. When they go and take their special personalities and essence with them they leave such an empty void behind.
