His tail seems very low, as though he has a hump back…..and ideas?

I wonder if his tummy is upset? You know how people with a tummy ache will sometimes curl up.
Such a difficult position you are in and no one knows what they would do until it happens to them. I don't have any advice except to say I'm hoping for the best for you and Charlie - such a sweet, amazing little guy.

I think it's very unprofessional that twice your vet has said they would call back but they haven't. I hope you have a positive appointment with the vet on Tuesday.
Even if they vet does suggest that it is time to say goodbye don't feel pressure to make the decision there and then. It needs to be right for both you are Charlie and if you need a little more time with him before you say goodbye then the vet should understand that.
I feel so sad for you and Charlie. You are both amazing.

Charlie remains the same, I feel very sorry for him and I am trying to prepare myself for the worst when we go to see the Avian vet on Tuesday. I would love her to say she can give him some other medication to make him better…..but the other part of me says…..let him go he has had enough now, We have our Granddaughter and Daughter-in-law staying over for a few days, so that is nice. They live in Dubai, my son is a pilot there….so it is helping me to stop worrying all the time……… It’s so quiet without my little man not talking all the time 😢😢

I feel sad for you Ladybird and for Charlie. He is one special budgie and you've done so much for him.

Take comfort from having your relatives with you. I'm still hoping the vet will see something she's missed - his case is very difficult.

Vets this morning and I am already getting upset because I think I know what she will say. In a way I NEED her to say he has to be PTS……….Naturally I am going to try and get her to say she can prescribe some other treatment………..but it would be better for me to cope if she said it’s time to STOP. For his sake. He made it more difficult last night when I was covering for bed….he started talking a lot and kept coming for kisses. My poor Charlie

It's such a hard choice for you to make. Whatever you decide, it is the right decision.

I'm heartbroken for you ladybird, I can hardly see to type this for the tears, I'm so very very sorry. Charlie, you were one brave and courageous little boy, and so dearly loved. Fly high to Rainbow Bridge little man 💝 Sending love and hugs ladybird, we all know how you feel those of us who have lost our own little ones xx You did everything you possibly could to help him, no one could have done more.
