Oh dear. I'll hope for good things for Garber, and if that doesn't happen, at least he won't be suffering or in pain.

I'm sorry Garber isn't doing better. {hugs}

Garber passed away this morning.
Here is his memorial thread.

*UPDATE*
Sorry I have not been around much to update lately.
Ophelia made a trip to the vets a while back and we found out what her diagnosis is. It is what I thought it was going to be... an ovarian tumor. At the moment it is about the size of a walnut and it is not operable. It is already causing blood clots and poor circulation. She is an amazing little rat, though. She is still acting 100% normal.
The vet gave us pain meds to give to her and basically told us to take her home and spoil her, and once we feel it is time then to have her PTS. She does not have long, though... and as soon as she starts to decline then it will be time to help her to the RB. I have a feeling it might be sometime during this coming week.
Until then I am cherishing every second.


Here is a picture taken yesterday when she was out in the playpen with the other two girls. They were making a mess scattering babyfood all over the place.

Give that sweet little one extra attention and loving. Make wonderful memories to add to those that you already have. Treasure your time together and keep us updated please.

Ophelia passed away this morning.

Moesha, I certainly did just that. I am at peace with her passing, knowing I did all I could and I gave all.

And a final thanks to anyone who had both her and Garber in their prayers while they were ill. I am forever appreciative!
