Story

Hi my name is Connie, Im far from a expert in fact i am a amantur in love with my birds. but i wanted to tell you about my african grey who seems to know when people are sick. I have always been sick and he seems to know when im not feeling well because he will ask me,WHAT'S WRONG MOM. I was visiting my sister and i always take Dusty with me when im going to be gone more than a day. and while i was there Dusty kept flying to the next couch where my sister was sitting i thought this was strange as i told my sister that he never tries to go to other people like that and the only time he insisted to stay with me against my invitation was when i wasn't feeling well or was upset. i ask my sister if she was feeling alright she said she was. so i just thought Dusty was enjoying her company so i discerned myself about his unsual behavior. but about 3am in the morning my sister woke me up sick. we both have pancreas problems so i got up and took her to the hospital they admitted her as i knew they would. That night she awoke having a heart attack unbeknowned to her that she even had a problem. I truley think Dusty knew she was very ill that night before she felt the first pain .
