Dental

Sending lots of vibes for Jimmy. I hope that the vet's treatment today brings about some improvement.
 
Thank you.
It's going to be a long day. Jimmy has ongoing dentals and they are very regular , I always think to myself once he is sick more than he is well I should let him go and he hasn't been right since Norah left. He has a new friend now but he hasn't eaten much and hasn't been the same for 3 weeks. .
If he doesn't pull through it will be because this is the way it's meant to be. If he Does pull through, then it's a blessing and he's meant to stay for Now.
I will leave it in the hands of the universe to decide.
It's hard when you want to control an outcome but I've found out as lve got older that most things in life you can't control. We can only hope for a positive outcome.
Thanks for the support.

I used to have a bunny who needed very regular dentals as well, and who struggled to eat a lot of the time and was in the same place Jimmy is now several times, and I know how hard it can be and how it can often seem like they won't make it, or like they're struggling so much that it would be more kind to let them go. As long as they're still enjoying life it's easy to see that we should help them live in the best way we can, but since you say Jimmy hasn't been the same since Norah died, and hasn't been eating much, even with him having a new friend, I can see why you're thinking about this. It sounds like he's still grieving, and possibly with time he'll feel better, or it could be medical issues that just happen to coincide with your losing Norah, or both; it's hard to say. The only thing you can do is make sure he has all he needs, including good vet care, and then hope for a positive outcome like you said.
 
Adding my vibes for Jimmy - I really hope he responds to treatment & recovers well. Such a worrying time
 
My gorgeous gentle boy has gone to be with his wife. Heartbroken beyond words and feel like a light had gone out inside of me. Losing 2 in 3 weeks is unbearable, I've never hurt like this before in my life and I've lost close family.. He bonded with a new girl and now she's left. (not for long)
How do i get through this. Everything was about norah and Jimmy , everything around me is them. I am Struggling [emoji22]

I am so, so sorry to read this sad update :cry: You will get through this, but allow yourself as much time as you need. The rawness of this time will hopefully be replaced by wonderful memories. You will always have Norah and Jimmy safe in your heart.

Sending you loads of hugs.

I know that there are no words that can take away the pain you are feeling :cry: So instead I am sending you many hugs.

RIP Jimmy :cry:
 
Oh, no... I'm so, so sorry you lost Jimmy... Like Zoobec said, you did everything you could for him. It must be devastating, losing both him and Norah so close together. I'm so sorry...
