Sad Weekend
Posted: Sun Jul 16, 2006 8:18 pm
well, hubby's best friend of 47 years passed away ... we found out yesterday when he phoned him his father, who's a retired US Navy Commander & in better health than all of us, said he didn't have our phone numbers to let us know 
our friend, Bodie, passed away on the very day that our Gina passed ... 30 june ... we'd just phoned him a few days prior to that & he said he felt terrible & would phone us back ... his dad said he wouldn't go to a doctor ... he had diverticulitis & had been having severe symptoms for about a month ... hubby's not dealing with this very well ... can hardly dry his eyes ... i gave him a "sleeper" so that HOPEFULLY he can get some rest tonight. i'll sleep on the sofa with the critters so as to keep the traffic in the bedroom to a minimum.
THEN, i got up this a.m. & one of my baby chimney swifts had died ... there're 3 left & one appears to be weaker than the others ... this a.m., i had to pry his little beak open to feed/water him, but all of the other times that i fed him, his mouth wuz open wide ... i'm saying my prayers & crossing everything.
sorry to be such a downer ... reckon i'm just venting.
huggles,
Wren
