Dear sweet Issy, we'll just miss you so much; we have no idea why you passed, it's not even been a week, it feels like forever. You were only 19 mo old. We brought you back from alot of pain when you were little, only 2 mo old, and you were so sick. Poor Issy, you only had a few inches of tail, you'd had the rest eaten off by another baby (they weren't very well fed :angry5: ) We bought you right then and there and brought you home. You started to do well within a week and we made sure you went to the vet when you were sick. But we couldn't get to the vet in time when you got sick this time. You seemed fine the morning and afternoon of the day you got sick, you were fine at supper, by evening you couldn't breathe & you were gone the next morning. I'm just glad I was hugging you at the time.

I wanted to post a pics of Issy's short life, she was a very special beardie and she had fun every day once she was improving:

She was tiny when we found her at the bottom of a tank in a pet shop. We figure she was about 2 mo old, maybe a bit older. She hardly fit on my index finger and I'm a small woman with small hands:

Deciding she liked her reflection and settlling down to watch it.

A few weeks after, she's not as dark and has more energy:

Issy was never our biggest dragon, she was 7 1/2" from snout to vent, her tail was at max 4" long:

Issy loved to climb, especially Roger's big hassock and chair in the living room:

She also loved to run around the living room and hide from time to time:

She once figured out how to stand tall and look over the divider into Angel's tank:

She didn't have quite enough energy to get herself out of the tub.

I know you're over the Rainbow Bridge with Angel and Dino, Jasper and Miss Campbell Jane, Puff and Spike and all the other beardies who have passed over.
RIP Issy, we'll always remember you
Mom, Dad, Sweetie, Lonzo, Rubio and Leo

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
