A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall The Critter Corner RIP my baby JOJO

Last night when I went to bed JOJO told me JOJO daddy pretty baby bird yes siry JOJO loves daddy nite nite. This morning I found him dead in his happy hunt. This is a bad start to a bad year for me. As you know he was my constant companion he was given to me so young I hand fed him taught him to talk. His cage set by my chair so we could talk and watch TV together. He would sit on my computer when I was on it.
When I came home from the hospital he wouldn't leave my side when I came in the door he said I love you daddy.
My baby

Bratbird baby sitting JOJO
When Diane called he liked talking to her he called her Aunt DiDi when the phone rang I would say it's Aunt and he would say Didi. He would punch on his cell phone I ask who he was calling he would say Didi. My heart is torn out and my life a lot more empty. I can barely see to write this.

I am so sorry, Jimmy.

Jimmy I know how much you're hurting,, I'm soooooo so sorry,,
Jojo was truly a joy for you. I know he was your constant companion and He Brought you many many laughs, and made me laugh with the stories you'd tell me,, there was no doubt he loved his daddy he will be greatly missed.

Thank you Diane and Tina. Just thought I heard him cough making fun of me he would say I daddy then wheeze and cough then laugh.

OH Jimmy--I am so sad to hear this...what an awful way to begin the new year----and I had such hopes for this year.

many prayers are going out for you.

Aw Jimmy, I'm so very sorry to read of your loss. I know what a special relationship you had with JOJO, and am very thankful for all the wonderful times you had with each other.

{{{{Jimmy}}}}

So sorry for your loss Jimmy...

Thank you Tamara

Thank you Lynne

Wow...I just read this...I hadn't seen it til now.
Of course, I'm sitting here bawling right now.

Jimmy, I am so sorry.

Thank you Cindy I am still crying. Was told not to be ashamed of crying would be too bad if I was because I cried like a baby.

Crying helps us heal...

So sorry Jimmy , I cried again the other day , I had to sell all my cows , since hubby died.
It was so hard to walk down the lane an not hear a moo or see the faces of our pets.
See I would of had to crawl up a large silo daily to get the silage out , feed that , hay, an clean the barn. Not in the winter I didnt want to.

Hd always said off to the sale they go.
I do feel lonely for more reasons than Hubby being gone. But I am moving forward,
family an friends are helping, an it is getting easier today.

Cry if you want to , i did an still do. It is comforting.

I am so sorry dodge I know it has to be lonely your life's love now your cattle gone no matter the reason. I have known ladies in that position before my heart and prayers go out to you. Hopefully 2011 will get some better.

Dont be sorry Jimmy, but thanks.
I could not handle a herd of cows an huge bull my self.. labor is pricey an Beef has dropped so badly in the markets. Not profitable.

Maybe I should get a Liaama ..
