Jason,

I was so, so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. Is is difficult enough to lose someone that you love so much, so suddenly, without your stepmother making it worse by refusing to have a memorial service that you might attend to pay your last respects to him.
I can't imagine what she's thinking, to be so mean-spirited about allowing you to say your last goodbyes.

However, I'm sure that your father knew how much you loved him, and, as a parent, I can tell you that your love meant everything to him, and he would surely understand that this is something that you can't control. Your father is in a better place now, and there is no more pain.....and he will be looking down and watching over you for the rest of your life, because that is what parents do!

You are a fine young man, and a son that any father would be proud to have, and no matter what your stepmother does, she can never take that away from you.

I know how much you must be hurting right now, and all of us are here for you, if you need us. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time, and if you need to talk , send me a private message with your phone number, and I'll call you, if you think that it might help.

Hugs,
Denise

Hi Jason,

I have been thinking about you and LG, and I hope you are doing all right. It was rough when my dad passed away, fourteen years ago now, and I know I was numb with the pain for a while. It is funny how blank I am about some incidents from that time. I had some good friends, though, and they walked through the pain with me, and it will get better. It does not go away, but this is part of living, and becomes part of who we are. As you are also a deeply compassionate person, we both know, through what we feel and what we care deeply about, that this life is worth living, and love keeps us on this path. Let LG guide you, and I hope she will bring you back here soon. PM me if you want my number, and I will talk with you any time you want. Stay well, friend!

I'm so sorry to hear about your father, Jason, not to mention the fact that LG is a girl. We found out Sweetie was a girl the same way, she laid eggs in her tank. She was 2 yrs old at the time.

You're in our thoughts and prayers,
Deb

Just stopping by to see how everything is going?

Sorry everyone, for not showing the passion for this that I once did...

Lately I've been having a difficult time getting from day to day, and I just can't seem to bring myself to visit this site as often as I should...

Right now, I am uploading a feeding video of LG, as well as some pictures I just took. LG isn't eating by herself anymore... I've been force feeding her for the past month or so...

Again, sorry for my dull, whiney composure; I just don't have the energy to put up any kind of a front.





Pictures and video will be up shortly...

Hi Jason!

We are so glad to see you back here. :wave: Don't worry about whining, you've had a very rough go, and do whatever you need to to take care of yourself. A little whining, we can deal it. Just remember, when you are low, that you do have friends here. LG is probably comiserating with you on some level, and her appetite is down, at least in part, for that reason. As you take care of yourself, hopefully she will brighten up as well. Just remember, it was your love and care that saved her in the first place, and you can use that same love and care for yourself. No front needed, you are among friends! :love5: and (((Great big hugs)))

Now, I am looking forward to more LG pics! :laughing6:

 

[lizardgrrl]

After looking at the pics and the vid, LG may be a little lethargic but looks pretty good otherwise. :love5: She definitely seemed very interested in her food, and that is very good. :laughing6: I have dealt with beardies who don't want to eat at all, and that is really difficult! Trying to open clamped beardie lips take patient persistance and care! :roll: Thank you for the pics and the update, and :love5: and hugs to both you and dear LG!

Hi Jason, as Mary Ann said, don't worry about whining on this site, you have alot of friends here and this is always a good place to vent. As far as feeding LG, she's acting just like our Sweetie is, always looking for a hide. Sweetie just laid her 7th clutch of infertile eggs since Jan and I've had to force feed her alot after each clutch was laid. Just make sure LG has alot of extra calcium, that's important, otherwise you're doing a great job with her, as always. My hubby and I are dedicated to our dragons (we now have six, two are fosters for a friend who went to Japan for a year), we also lost 3 dragons this past spring. Two were rescues that had hidden issues, but Issy was healthy, she was hit by a virus and didn't survive. It took us months to get over her & we're still grieving. I hope you're feeling better soon, you are an amazing human being with a huge heart. So just take care of yourself as best you can...but know that you have alot of friends here.

Take care,
Deb

Jason, LG is deffinitely interrested in eating as the above poster pointed out, if she didn't want to eat, nothing you could do would get her to open her mouth. It looks to me as if she's a little depressed because you are. Try to give her some snuggles and let her comfort you. I could be wrong, but I think she wants to comfort you.

We've had 2 beardies in the past that were great with that. They know when you aren't feeling good or are depressed for some reason or another and want to comfort you. Our current two are getting better with that, also.
