My Simi passed away yesterday

I posted this last summer how my Simi was coughing or sneezing. He was prescribed antibiotics. He seemed to perk up for the most part but never really seemed 100%. We took him in again last Tuesday. They drew blood and found his white cell count was elevated extremely. We are heartbroken once again since we lost Atlas our rescue beardie. I totally feel like we failed the poor thing.

So sorry to hear about Simi! So hard to lose a pet! Sounds like you did a lot to help these little guys. In humans, a high white cell count sounds like an infection..maybe the same for reptiles? I'm sorry that the vet wasn't able to save Simi!

Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
