all i have is death. kaiser has now joined the ranks of everyone else. i am down to jolly midge and lucia. he had blisters on his face and neck. he went to the vet, i had a topical and an oral antibiotic. monday i came home from work and there was blood all in his cage. tuesday when i woke up he was sitting in a pool of blood. his entire side had turned into an open wound. he went back the vet but he died later that day. now he is on his way for an autopsy.

he was my little cranky man. he was afraid of everything and loved to bite me

Kaiser has also died. What a handsome lil guy he is. VERY disturbing. It also baffles me as far as this virus or whatever diease(blister diease)that the girls were the first to get it, (last season if I'm correct) and they have survived.

Do you ever see these blisters on them anymore? Again, I am terribly sorry about your boy, I know even though he was grumpy and would bite you, you got a kick out of him

This sure has been a sad and frustrating couple seasons for you. Hopefully it will all turn around and things will be better real soon. Let me know about the girls (what I asked) Thanks

I know you did everything you could, and then some. This blister disease is really scary.

Oh, Vonnie, I'm so sorry. What an awful time of it you've had lately! It's just not fair.

I'm thinking of you and poor Keiser.

Sorry to hear about your lizard. Keep us posted on the findings of the autopsy.

It's never easy to lose anything you care for, especially in such a horrible way. Please let us know what the vet says on autopsy. At least he isn't suffering anymore. We're thinking of you.

Hey me too, we're really sad to hear of your loss, I can only imagine how you must be feeling, we all know they had a tough time recently.

The important thing is that he isnt suffering and that he had a good mom to give him the best care he could have wished for, maybe Kaiser can help to stop it from happening to others, I hope you begin to feel better soon, and so sorry for your loss x x

My sympathies, Vonnie. I know how hard it is to lose a lizard so suddenly.

Please keep us informed of the autopsy.
