Just a few months ago I lost my 13 yr. old quaker Booey.She was a part of my family for 3 wondrous years.The first 10 years of her life she lived with her first mom Peggy.Peggy was diagnosed with ALS and in a few years passed away.....well,needless to say it was very hard on Booey,so by the time she came to live with me she was quite the little meany.I loved her anyways,and we soon came to an understanding(of sorts,lol).She was a fiesty little gal,and soon entertained all my family with her laugh and her inquiries of "Where's the baby",her favorite saying,lol.When she passed away I thought my heart would break,I didn't realize how much this little green soul meant to me.Those first few days were hectic,to say the least.....but after about the third day,as me and my husband and son were sitting in the living room,I heard a noise.(I do have 8 cockatiels in my home also)SHH,I told my family,for I knew exactly what it was I was hearing and it wasn't coming from my tiels.The immediately hushed and low and behold they heard it too.With a small laugh and a one word phrase"Booey"(cause she loved to say her name)It was none other than my little green angel,Booey....This all heard by me and my family.About the same time as all this came about,on the t.v. was a video by Montgomery Gentry...something to be proud of.....and there she was....my Booey flying free in the sky going home to live with her first mom Peggy,in heaven.This was her way of showing me that she was okay and with someone that loved her just as much as I do.Now when I really get to miss her bad,all I have to do is see the video or hear the song(which is now renamed the Booey song)and I know that she is truly happy and safe.

What a touching story!! I'm glad that you are able to have some closure on this. Sounds like Booey is making sure that you are doing the healing that you need to.
