Please pray.

 My bird is really sick, and I'm afraid he's dying. I know ten years is a pretty good lifespan for a parakeet, and I'm blessed to have had such a wonderful pet for so long, and I'm doing everything I can for the time being, getting him the vitamins and antibiotics and syringe feeding him to make sure he's getting what he needs, but I just... I thought I was doing fine the last few days, but today I can't stop crying whenever I try to think about it or talk about it. It's taken me a stupid amount of time just to type this, because I have to keep stopping. I couldn't even talk to the vet when she called this morning to see how he was doing, and I have never reacted that way before, no matter how sick any of our pets have been.

At the moment I'm just trying really hard not to burst into tears again, because I really need to get some things done today, and sitting here crying when he's still alive isn't going to do anything for anything. But I'm having a hard time actually focusing on anything remotely important.

Please pray for him? And for me... I know that I should be dealing with this better, but at the moment all I really want to do is sit here and cry a while longer.
