Got your email and hopped on to help, if I can. Has he had any trauma, any injuries to the area? Does it feel mushy? Infections can absess under the skin and not show up until they get bad. It doesn't look like a burn to me. There is no blistering and skin peeling like I have seen pics of...

Glad this is open too. I was wondering. I am dealing with Derrick being sick right now. He might be terminal. I was thinking about Tatsu and this book just the other day. It would be a big help in the grieving process for me. He's been gone 6 months and now Derrick might have a brain tumor or...

I resent them to you.

Thank you. It helps to write about him. I miss his fanmail for his army so much. I didn't realize how much a part of my life that had been. Did you get my email with his pic and entry?

I just sent Tatsu's memorial in and now I'm crying again. Seems like that's all I've been doing since this last December. :(

Thank you. I hope you'll continue to stop by my blog. The boys will be making appearances when appropriate. It was hard to write that piece for Tatsu, but I loved him so much. This whole month has been hard with his birthday and the holiday I got him for. *sniffle*

Aww ... thank you. I am touched that you are naming the booklet after my baby. Today was a hard day for me. I miss him so much and with his birthday this month and him being a late Valentine's present from my ex, it's just been rough. :( I will put something together this week and get it out to...

Is it too late to add a pic of Tatsu? I saw this post and it made me cry. I just blogged about Tatsu for Valentine's Day and in it I mentioned his army post and how much joy I had answering his fanmail. This is a great idea! -Sek http://norabpeevy.blogspot.com/

This letter was addressed to all the troops and found in Tatsu's stump shortly after he passed away by his owner, Sek: Dear Troops, My time on earth draws short, but do not fear. Face your missions bravely with a full stomach, a full beard, and a full heart and know that I am still here...

This note also found in Tatsu's stump. Sek had no idea that Tatsu was such a prolific journalist! Dear Gobi: I am so glad that Amigo came home alright. We can use all the troops we can get! Hopefully, you can explain to him how to communicate away from home so this does not happen again...

Found by Sek as well: Dear Ollie: Of course you can join! Membership is open to anyone with a positive attitude and a willingness to help out other dragons all over the world. I will add you to our troop list. Welcome aboard! Please remember to send the alloted supers, etc. to my secret...

This note was also found by Sek: Dear Oscar, I do not have worms to spare, but perhaps, you could gain access to a slave's credit card online or ask our other troops to send you supplies. Good luck! I am hungry here too! Sincerely, Tatsu

Sek writes: I found this odd message in Tatsu's stump after he passed and am posting per his wishes. Dear 11 Troops, You will all be added accordingly. I sincerely hope you have enough for all of you to eat at your house. I have three other lizards in my house and sometimes I am NOT please...

I found this note in Tatsu's stump where apparently, unbeknownst to me, he was amassing an army and planning World Domination. As his last wishes I am posting his responses here: Dear Shadow and Vladmere, Keep up the good work and keep me posted. Right now I am holed up in my stump waiting...

I made Tatsu's funeral arrangements yesteday, which was very hard to do. Will has been out of town for the past two months. I had to put Tatsu down by myself and am dealing with all this at home alone. It is very hard. :cry:

He would have been 8 in Feb. of this coming year. The vet said that they are finding that a normal life expectancy for these animals as they learn more about them is around 7 or 8 years, not 10 or longer. And most of the lizards they are seeing have some sort of cancer when they pass. Cancer...

Thank you everyone. I just came back from out of town and his empty cage was hard to see. But I am taking comfort in the fact that because of my owning Tatsu he was able to reach so many and help make beardie care better for other beardies. And he also brought a lot of joy to a lot of people...

Tracie, I looked at pictures of him yesterday and I have that huge oil painting that Elaine did of him hanging in the house. I am okay with the painting because I see it every day, but the pictures of him ... some made me smile ... and some made me even sadder.

Thank you, again, everyone. It helps to know that people are there and understand my pain. Today I had to do laundry and there was some of Tatsu's blood on my sweatshirt. It was really hard to deal with. :cry:
