I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I just lost my brazilian rainbow. I had her from when she was a tiny little baby to about 7 feet long, and had planned to breed her this year. She developed a respritory infection, so I gave her antibiotics. Everything looked like it was getting better, she stopped wheezing and blowing bubbles, then I looked in her cage a few days later and she was gone. The hardest part for me, was laying her to rest in a respectful way (you know?? You can't just throw away and animal that you have cared for since infantcey, so I dug a deep hole in the back yard and planted a rose bush over her) and cleaning out her cage was rough. Good luck to you, and I know that it sounds crazy and I hated people saying it to me, but everything happens for a reason.
