Thank-you for giving him that chance, Jessica. You did a hard thing when you gave him over to someone who has a chance of saving him. We will keep him in our prayers. Will they tell you how he is?

If another little one comes into your life, here is an excellent link that will help you with the basics.

Awww Jessica. I know how hard this has to be for you. In three weeks, they can sure steal your heart. I'm sure you put a lot of effort and sleepless nights into caring for your baby.
That was a courageous and compassionate thing you did by seeking help with the vet. I pray that he will make it and if he does it's because you gave him a chance.

LONG SHOT BUT maybe a local rehabber should call the wildlife center. Maybe that could make a difference if they had someone interested in taking the baby off their hands.

Good idea BigNibbler! Hopefully we have someone in that area.

What a generous thing you did Jessica. Believe me, everyone here knows how hard it is to give your baby away. But you loved him enough, to give him a chance, knowing that the vet could orovide the life saving medicine he desperately needed.

I think you should check out the link that Nancy gave you for Henrys. And I think you should do it as soon as possible, because once a squirrel has found its way to you, they seem to have an underground hotline that they keep our names on.

It is very obvious, with a heart as big as yours, that it won't be long before another little one in need finds his way to you.

I am pretty sure you are crying, and everyone here has spilled many a tear.
But, you are such a loving person, that despite the loss you knew you would feel, you still did the best thing for your little one.

You are the kind of person that belongs here. Please come back. You can learn all about the little fuzzers here, and be ready for the next one.

Thank you so much for loving your little guy.

Jessica, you are truly a hero. I can't imagine how sad you must feel knowing that you won't be bringing him home, but if he is to have any chance in the world at surviving pneumonia it will be under a vet's care who knows wildlife. There really wasn't any other option and you are truly a hero for putting this little sweet creature's needs before your own feelings.

You will have another squirrel in your life....I promise. It never fails.
