DOVEScot Posted March 15, 2008 Author Report Posted March 15, 2008 Billy is back out of hospital, Me, Chickadee and Cabin Boy are going down to revamp his lofts tomorrow, all those that enquired about his birds, I hope to post some info this week. We have persuaded him to look at taking a ground floor house with his own back garden, he will just use the loft that Ferry gave him and keep a small team of racers He says thanks for all the well wishes from members on the site
DOVEScot Posted March 18, 2008 Author Report Posted March 18, 2008 Just when you think you are getting there Billy deteriorates again, 5’ 4” and 4 ½ stone he is like a skeleton, but he is a fighter, sad thing is he has neither the energy nor the breath to cope. He had seven areas to keep clean, three lofts and four aviaries, Carol and Lewis and me dismantled his make shift aviaries yesterday and I am going to get rid of some birds, dismantle his old loft and just leave him with the two lofts, which I can cope with looking after in the meantime. Went to see him last night and he is on oxygen and a drip so just have to wait and see I HAVE EIGHTEEN BIRMINHAM ROLLERS FROME HIS LOFT TO GO, Some nice birds, reds, yellows, opels and white grizzles amonst them, anyboby interested please let me know asap, Mikkey and Sammy has said they want some, so they will have first choice I will post pics of them tomorrow if I have time to take some

DOVEScot Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Posted March 20, 2008 Due to the Bank holiday, Amtrak are off till tues so them that were interested in West of England tumblers will have to wait till next week till I have the space, when the Birmingham rollers go Sorry about that Good news on the Billy front is that his breathing problem was not due to keeping birds, he is being kept in and not getting out till he puts on some wieght and can cope. His pancreatic cancer is not progressive and with the right treatment he may make a reasonable recovery ;D ;D ;D
