The day I lost a good friend
by Skozak665
It's hard for me to even type at this moment. Where do I begin? Up until two days ago I had a pet bunny. His name was Bamajama, he was the sweetest, kindest, most loving animal in the world.
I got up Monday morning late as usual for work I walked in the computer room where Bam was said my usual, "Hey buddy morning." I noticed he was in his litter box kinda shaking and that there was diarrhea in his cage so I hurried and cleaned it. Then I called and told my fiancee' about it and asked him to keep an eye on Bam when he came home for lunch.
When I got home the first thing I did is run up the stairs to check up on him. He wasn't his usual hopping around self so I knew something was wrong. I called the vet but she was gone for the day and so they advised me to take him to the emergency vet. By this time it was 7 p.m.
I drove to the emergency vet, but discovered they didn't open till 8 p.m. so I went back home. I drove back to the vet at 8:40 p.m., sat in the emergency area. Around 9:43 I was still waiting in the waiting room for Bammy to be seen. He took a big gasp of air & I panicked -- my fiancee' yelled & they told us to go to the next room. Then they told us he had no heart beat and he was dead.
I haven't stopped crying since that day. I am hurt broken. I feel guilty that I should have brought him to the vet early morning he would have been alive. I feel that he depended on me to be his voice and I let him down; he died because I didn't speak out at the emergency room and say, "HEY MY BUNNY IS DYING WE CANT WAIT ANY LONGER CAN YOU PLEASEEEE HELP HIM!!!" I feel awful guilt and shame. I feel so sad and horrible for Bamajama that I let him down when I was supposed to be his voice!
"I'm so sorry Bamajama, I hope you know i Love you so0o0o so0o much that my heart will never be the same without you! My heart is broken -- you were the best -- please remember the the times I told you 'HEY BAM DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU?' LOTSSS!! You're the best Bamajama, I miss you so much I wish I could turn back time, I am so sorry! I will never forgive myself for not taking you to the vet sooner, I should have been the good friend that you were to me. I'm sorry I let you down, I just can't stop thinking about that day and how I could have done thing differently. I LOVE YOU BAMAJAMA! I KNOW YOU ARE IN HEAVEN WITH OTHER BEAUTIFUL BUNNIES LIKE YOURSELF! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER PLEASE FORGIVE ME! I WANT YOU TO BE THE 1ST BEING I SEE WHEN I DIE, BAMAJAMA! I KNOW ITS ALOT TO ASK, BUT PLEASE YOU HAVE TO KNOW HOW SORRY I AM! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER YOU ARE MISSED IN MY HEART AND MY LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME."
XOXOXO RIP BAMAJAM

You guys are great. Butch hates the vet's office, but he seems less nervous at the mobile clinic. Butch was done so fast he didn't know what happened.
