A very sad week for me

As most or some of you know I have been very sick and an er dr and I narrowed it down to the fact that I caught a virus from the birds and they needed to be re homed and I did so on Thursday and I am grieving so please understand that this was one of the hardest decisions I had ever had to make . Another note : If you are constantly sick and live in a small home please , have yourself checked . Living in small spaces it is apparently very easy to get sick . I was just told from a friend about a family who is living in a small home and they have several animals and they are constantly sick . I wonder if they make the relation to the animals and their being sick all the time . Before i got sick I was never this sick in my life . I got three different opinions and all the drs agreed that the birds were causing my sickness due to the dander that birds have and their droppings can be a problem as well . I must admit since cleaning my whole house top to bottom and using lysol everywhere I have started to feel better . I encourage all of you who have birds to please be careful when cleaning around them please wear a mask and gloves when cleaning a bird cage . Please dont misunderstand me when I say this but please all of my friends and readers who have birds please be careful . Please understand also that I did what was best for the birds and for me . I cannot be sick for the rest of my life and I dont want to be . I hope all of my readers understand .
