Daisy died today

I don't feel too bad. It's just as well. She had also lost a lot of
weight in the last couple of weeks. She had also been acting strangely -
mostly keeping to herself in the hammock, and occasionally going schizo,
chewing on the bars of the cage. I'd let her out, and she'd hop around
the room exploring before eventually lying on a shoe or something to
rest. She had been eating a lot less than normal and had lost a lot of
weight. I think her lungs were in bad shape from her last myco
infection, as she was always breathing hard.

It seemed like she was having another myco infection, so I was giving
her Baytril. That's when she panicked, had her worst gasping attack yet,
and died.

I'm so sorry to hear that. It may have been her time, but it's never
easy.
