    As a person who works in animal medicine, it’s the worst to not know why it happened, especially in large birds that live a long life span. Sincerely sorry for you loss and sending you my condolences. May the memories help throughout this tough time ❤️

    Sorry rachel. I can feel your pain. I remember crying my eyes out when my pet gold fish died. I had 6 of em I bought the 3rd and the 4th gold fish from another shop and unfortunately they had disease that spread to the rest of my goldfish and the aquatic plant that I unfortunately bought from that shop also turned out to be affecting the filter. I remember crying and cussing myself out. I couldn6get myself to bury them so my parents did that for me but after some days I was fine and put flowers on their resting place. My cousins called me crazy for doing this but I guess it was my way of dealing with death when I was 14. I am 18 now and I don't think it was too much. I still miss them 💜

    So sorry for your loss, it's always really tough to lose a pet that you grew up with. I'm sure Molly had a wonderful life in your family while she was there 💕
    As a roommate of a parrot owner, I can also guess that you & your family may have shared a very close bond with her... parrots are special animals and we expect them to be with us for life. So sad to hear that she's gone before her time.
    Take care of yourself!

    Man i feel the same way. I just finished all my prerequisites for my BSN program (i was unemployed and school was online) which i really liked now i got a job and started in person classes and clinicals and feel this sudden burst of energy every day. Like I actually have a small impact on the world and other peoples days. I haven’t felt this way since my 11th grade year of HS bc thats the last time i had to go to classes in person. My 12th grade year was interrupted by dual enrollment where i was at the campus all day and kept to my self or COVID where i stayed home all day. The the following year was university online.

    Hi Rachel, thanks for always making time to post on youtube, no matter what you're going through and just being honest. I hope you're doing okay and feel happy in your new place. xx It's my first comment and it feels kinda weird lol. Idk if that's stupid to share but I'm a law student from Poland (now my last 5th year) and had a breaking point last year where I could not get my head around studying, was honestly too anxious and generally feeling hopeless. Your video popped up on my yt page and was the first thing that helped me get out of that state after a very hard time. Thank you. You're always appreciated x

    Hey sorry about your pet. And your cold too. I'm trying so hard rn to study for my postgrad exam and everything seems like such an uphill battle. I've seen a few of your vids and just been so in awe of your energy and dedication to getting through. This one in particular really resonated with me. We lost our dog recently and...it just kinda sucks. But you gotta keep goin coz what else are you supposed to do. I hope Molly's memories can be with you and make you smile every time you remember them. Take care :)

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to lose a pet that you’ve loved and cared for-for so long. I have a question about another topic you brought up. Pap smear. I have been a nurse for years and now I’m currently a Med1 student. The female repro system has always been my “kryptonite”. Lol I get queasy just talking about it and have gotten faint even talking about menstruation. I dread OBGYN rotation. I can’t let this one subject deter me from becoming a doctor. Any advice? What is your weaknesses and how do you cope?

    Losing a pet is losing a family member. Even though years have passed, I still miss my canary who lived to be 10 1/2 years old. To have a creature in your life for that long or even longer as parrots live much longer, they become a part of your life and in a way of yourself.
