This is Luvie, our adopted daughter, she has been having problems lately digesting her food, we noticed that she was very weak and had lost weight. Got a recommendation from the local vet to use another vet that was a "bird vet" well, more like had a "corvette" payment needed to be made and basically took our money. Today we found a very competent vet who gave us a positive diagnosis, she has a bird disease that has a name so long that I could never possibly remember much less spell, he says if his diagnosis is correct, she will die from it, but with proper care she can live many more years, she has a intestine problem which doesn't allow her to get nutrients from her food. The vet gave us treatment meds and says this will make her eat more and get her nutrients from it. He says that her intestines are swollen and hat the meds will keep her alive till then.. Lets hope.
