Truely deverstating news
I returned home from work tonight to find my baby willow on her back under her basking light. Her little legs were stiff and stuck up in the air as If she had been struggling.
I tried everything I could think of like bathing her ect to try and make her move but after an hour of sobbing and washing her. She is gone I dread to think how long she was on her back for as she was awake at 8 when I was going to work. I want to thank you all for all the advice and help I was given because she start to really settle in. x

Aww, that is so sad, poor willow
I dread this happening with my two, they're always on their backs and can't get back over.

I'm really sorry to read that. It's painful to loose one that we have cared for.
