One of my beloved budgies died in my hands today. A couple of days ago I noticed that he had lost some weight and was having some sort of cramps or seizures. But then he felt better again and he even started chirping again, so I thought whatever it was was over. But today I suddenly saw him puke and thought, alright, time to get him to the vet. I grabbed the phone to make an appointment, but then noticed that he was having another seizure again, so I dropped the phone, picked him up and held him in my hands to see what was going on ... and he just collapsed and died. Fuck.
