Its 12 months to the day since Dolly left us and we would like to leave a belated ‘In Memory’.
We only found this forum 4 months after that terrible day, we were looking for answers to our deep grief. Others around us have dogs, horses, sheep and when we tried to express our grief, we just got the reply ‘it’s only a bird’. Finding The Parrot Club has been such a great help and comfort, knowing we are not alone in feeling this way after losing Dolly. Thank you everyone.
So, this is for Dolly. You were two years old when you came into our lives, you had experienced some upsets but soon settled and grew into an intelligent, beautiful and loving companion. You were young, we were older and we thought you would be with us forever but you were only with us for 23 short years. As we have no family you became our ‘Little Girl’ and we loved you dearly. You dominated our daily routine and never failed to make us laugh, even when you were being naughty. You would guard me and ‘see off’ my husband and when I left the room you would be all cute with him to get his attention. At bed time you would have a stroke from both of us, your cage was then covered – “Night night Dolly, night night Darling” – you would reply with a kiss. We remember you singing along to your favourite music, the house is so quiet now, there has been no music since you left for the Rainbow Bridge.
In the last year there has not been a day or even an hour when one of us has not thought of you, we will never forget you and love you to the end.
The only bright times are when we see a rainbow and we say Dolly’s popped over the bridge to check on us.
Stay safe and happy over the Rainbow Bridge little girl, till we meet again.
For Dolly.
