Please keep us posted! So sorry you're dealing with this!
One of our "old" (sorry Weeza, you know I love you!) members swore by putting a little bit of apple cider vinegar in the water. I'm not exactly sure what it does, but it does help.
The heat lamp is a good idea, and so is the suggestion to cover the cage on three sides. Your baby will tell you if (s)he is too hot, s(he) will "pant" like a dog, and hold his/her feathers slicked flat against the body. If (s)he is too cold, the feathers will be held out, all fluffy.
When any of our birds have been sick, we've made a hospital tank. We use a clean 10 gallon aquarium with a mesh top, line the bottom with hand towels with paper towels over the top (to monitor droppings). We put their food and water on one end, and cover the mesh top on that side with a towel. On the other end we put a heating pad and a lamp with a flexible neck, to direct the light. We put their favorite toy in with them, so they won't stress about the new surroundings.
I hope this helps!

There are two divisions in the NFL (National Football League), the AFC (American Football Conference) and the NFC (National Football Conference). To explain the conferences would involve a lot of history, so I'll just say that there used to be two separate leagues, and they merged to form the current NFL, and the two divisions.
The Seahawks are part of the NFC, and the Colts are part of the AFC.
To win the NFC Championship, and their spot in the Super Bowl, the Seahawks beat the Green Bay Packers.
Since my in-laws are from Indiana, I wanted the Colts to beat the New England Patriots, to win the AFC Championship...but they got massacred with a final score of 45-7, Patriots.

LOL The Seattle Seahawks are a football team, and we're going to the Super Bowl for the third time ever, and the second year in a row! I'm not that into sports, but this is really exciting!
The fans of the Seahawks, and several other teams, are called "The 12th Man" because of our team spirit. "The 12th Man" was made an official team member of the Seahawks, I believe, in 1987.
My hometown is about 90 miles north of Seattle.
Actually, I was wrong...the Seahawks retired the #12 jersey in 1984, in honor of the fans.

Well, the difference in Cami's um...physique...is startling. She's been with me for a year, and here is a comparison....then and now. Just FYI, I flipped the "now" shot, for the comparison...the spot is on her right shoulder. LOL

RIP, Corona. I'm so sorry. Losing a pet unexpectedly is so hard.

I found out that I can't wear my sparkle-butt jeans around Pico...I stood up while he was playing on the couch and felt something on my butt...I turned around and he had pulled one of the studs out!
