Laura,
I am sorry to here about your loss. Losing a pet is always heart wrenching. I have, fortunately lost very few snakes in my time collecting them, and hated each time that one passed. Your explanation was very thorough, and I wish I could give you some insight into his death. However, I have never heard of anything like this before, and would love any other info that you may think of or discover. Hugs go out to you for your loss. Keep your chin up, that smokin female Pastel will help to fill your void.

Tim,

Thank you. If I think of any additional information I will absolutely post it... It all happened so fast... the progression that is... that being said, your words mean alot.... *hugs* to you too!

Oh no.. I feel so bad about all this. I know that you care deeply about your animals from just talking to you.. oh hell. I am really at a loss for words.. I just hope that you don't beat yourself up too much, because we all make mistakes and really it seems as though you didn't think it was escalating into a worse situation.. please PM me if you need to talk anytime.

Thank you Gin....

It appears that I have handed out all my allotted good reps! So to everyone, if you didn't get one with a thank you... it is with you in my mind. I am overwhelmed by all the kind words, and am truly touched. They will not be forgotten, nor will all the support.

<3 Laura

I am very sorry to hear that. I agree that it sounds like something to do with the regurg acid, possibly if it burned your eyes he asperated too much and he could have had similar burns internally on the lungs. I know your post helped to educate me, and i hope it has helped others as well. But no matter what i can tell from your posts that you cared about him very much. I am very sorry, losing a pet is never easy.

Awwww man. I'm so sorry to hear about this. Very very sad!!! I was a little caught off when I read that you had lost him. I thought as if he had gotten out and you were unable to find him at the moment.... not that he had passed on. That was till I read the whole thing. man my heart goes out to the both of you. I hope you bury him in a nice place. I know you are in some heart aching pain right now but I always try to think that they are now out of pain and in a better place. Just remember all the good times you have had with him and all the smiles he brought you. Once again I'm super sorry that this has happened to you.

Hugs to everyone.......
