Thank you dear friend.


This is something I want to share with you!
Some time ago I received this message from the International Bird Rescue. 
Isn't this a lovely gesture of Ruxandra! 
- Amazing how much love and laughter pets bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them.
Our love for pet ducks brought us together.
Dear friend, in gratitude for your friendly gesture I want to share this picture in loving memory of your duckies.

Loving memory of Esme and Bruna 
Ruxadra's beloved pets.
Hope all's going well with you!
Here below follows the message with certificate where I talk about.
 *****
Dear Fran,
We are pleased to inform you that Ruxandra Balcangui has made a generous contribution to International Bird Rescue in memory of Pipke the Duck. This gift supports year-round care of injured birds brought to International Bird Rescue wildlife centers throughout California, including the recent “mystery goo” spill into the San Francisco Bay. As of this writing, we’ve released dozens of sea ducks and other birds found oiled. Many more remain in our care and are thankfully nearing their release date.
We’ve attached a memorial certificate to this email.
Thank you so much for your support.

  3. Hi Ambur, glad to see you're back on the web. It must be a relieve for you that you can have contact with the outside world again!
    Yes isn't she a wonderful woman. She also had a few ducklings. She loved them dearly but they perished in horrific conditions. Hope your duckies are still alive and kicking.

    1. It's very tough because he wasn't sick or anything, he was playing around just fine...Jack ran after him to peck him...he hit the cardboard and fell to his side...that's it. I don't know if Jack pecked him hard at his nape or it was heart attack or he broke his neck by hitting the card board... It took maybe less than 10secs I don't know. I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye. Only heard his last few heart beats...how could it be like this.

  5. Let it be a comfort for you that it all went so quick Ambur! Probably he has not suffered.
    Saying goodbye after a long agony makes the passing even heavier!

  6. Yes indeed that's what I keep telling myself over n over that at least he didn't have to suffer from some illness or something before it happened...time will heal the impact of this blow but my boy will always be loved and missed by his family... I'm only looking forward to meeting him up there in heaven and be with my little baby forever and ever

  7. I wished that could be possible! For that reason I want to believe that heaven exists, then no doubt - I would leave this earth immediately! But you know Ambur ...!
    Take care sweet girl!

  8. Believe in it then it will be...God sure has to award us for what we have done in this life...so let's be good and expect heaven in reward...
    Thankyou for being with me...I know you understand my grief

  9. Yes that would be a better approach, then I would have something to look forward to. I understand your grief more than anyone else because we are kindred spirits.
