Rico died sometime in the night. He was gone when I woke up this morning to switch out his lights. His body attempted to process and expel some of the saline I gave him and it was too much for him. His liver or kidney (or both) had already shut down.
Rico will be buried in my beautiful herb garden with many other beardies. He was loved in the end. Last night he even turned his head to look at me-- really look at me. I thought he was surviving. I know he wanted to, but it was too little too late.
I am sad. Losing beardies takes its toll on my heart always.
