Bloody hell Sharon.... talk about everything going tits up all at once My mum went througha period like this a few years back, it was one thing after the other and I really feared for her health because of it. But she is a strong woman and she pulled through it all, it seems such a long time ago now. You are strong too, i can tell by the way you have done everything for your darling fish. you WILL get through all this. You WILL look back one day and go, god that was a dark time,. but look where I am now. I do hope there is a miracle for Riley, but more importantly, and I know that might sound bad, but I hope your mum is alright. Every girl needs her mum more than anything else in the world. Let Mark take riley tomorrow if he is still with us, and then you can concentrate on your mum. She needs you so bad right now. All my love and best wishes xxx

I'm so pleased to hear that, sharon. Mark, you are an angel - this is so kind of you

 

[SharonCC]

YAY!!! That is one tough fish...

 

[malakye]

I really half expected to read this today and for poor Riley to have died over night, dang hes a fighter. Hope Mark can help you and Riley and that the rest of your families health problems are soon on the mend. All the best.

How is riley now as the board been playing up.

 

[Hayleamorgan]

Hi Sharon
What is the update? Please tell us he is still hanging in there!
xxxxxxxxxx

 

[elaine128]

hi sharon, i`m sure everyone on here wants to know how things are,please tell us,did mark take riley?

 

[sharon000111]

hi...so so sorry i have been up & down the hospital with mum all weekend...

message to mark ...sorry i did not phone today ...its to late now will will 100% phone in the morning as not got hospital till the evening..

GUESS WHAT GUYS..when i poped home late last night to sort my animals out before going bk up to mum...riley was on his belly and looking at me wiggling !!!

BUT EVEN BETTER THAN THAT... when i got home tonight about 10 riley was swimming and still is...he is just perfect..swimming ..not banging into any thing just as normal again..he is swimming all over the tank..wiggling..yawning..smiling...i just cant believe it....reckon he thought ..that i had enough on my plate so he would give me a break and stop sulking...

the frontosa's are going tomorrow night.
the kissings are going tomorrow.
the plecs go fri.

so will just be riley and harry the arowana in the tank...until i find a good home for harry...i do have a lady comeing to see him on satuday...so all being well will just be riley...

But also my tank has been sold...but the man buying it will wait for riley to be at full health before he takes it.

I am still going to give up with the fish and tanks...as my mum will need full time care now when she comes home..she is very ill and has machines to breath for her...so with every thing else as well i will not have the time for the tank...and it wont be fair to riley..

so i will be looking for a very loving home for riley as soon as he is back to full health ( which he looks now ) he has even had a mussel to eat..only one but thats a good sign..i dont want any money for riley just some one that knows about the mbu puffer and of course a big enough tank for him...and will love him for me......

you guys i can't thank enough for all your help and support ...i will be staying on this forum though just to see how you are all getting on..

i wish you all could see riley swimming around so happy....what a strong little man...and i nearly gave up on him..wow..so glad i didn't xxxx

 

[WILDER]

Glad he seems alot better.
Sorry about your mum I know how you feel my mum was seriously ill and died 8 years ago.
Wish you all the luck.
