Firstly: Dear LS Support Team, please move this post to the appropriate forum if necessary since I really don't know where to tell all of you the following. Many Thanks!

Dearest Friends, you can find my posted thread about Alex in the "Death and Dying Pet Support" forum and here is a link to click so you won't have to hunt it down should you wish to see what happened. Please click the following: Alex, I Shall Love You Eternally, My Best Friend Ever!

I just received an email from one of the organizations where I've continued to send updated information and have been monitoring since the very beginning of my loss for "just in case." It's called "911 Parrot Alert." Here's a copy and paste of the email excluding the "finding" person's name, phone number and email address. All other email addresses ought to remain since those are the people who others should know about if they've suffered a similar loss so can contact them. And, all those email addresses are on the Net at several Websites. The copy and pasted email I received begins now ...


Please contact finder D#####

*********************************************

Above is the entire copy and pasted email except that I edited the finder's name, email address and telephone number as I stated at the top.

This could be Alex!!! It's one chance in a million or even a billion but it could be Alex from what I found out actually did happen to him as you'll read in my last post on my thread I linked to you at the top of this post.

I called the finder the moment I received the email and left a detailed message on his/her message machine. Actually, I can't tell by the finder's first name if this person is male or female. Anyway ... I DO BELIEVE IN MIRACLES!!! They happen every day! Still, I'm trying my level best not to get too excited. As my brother Tony has told me on several occasions: "Happy (or Blessed) are those who expect nothing for they shall never be disappointed." Words to live by. It's great to have Hope though. Oh God! I am Hoping and Praying so hard but have promised myself not to expect that it is Alex. We shall see when the finder person calls me back.

Please, please, please keep me and Alex in your thoughts, prayers, sending positive vibes and many loving Angels our way.

Thank you all and God Bless You Most Abundantly!!! wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif

Always,
Dottie xoxoxox

IMPORTANT EDITED INFORMATION: Doh! The following information just occurred to me:

1. The culprit Julia Galpin who is the owner of the management company for the Home Association where I live as stated in my original thread lives and has at least one of her offices in that area.

2. 727 is indeed her area code there, too.

3. Julia Galpin is the one who contacted me before I had ever met or even spoken to her telling me that she found a person (Ida Cesareo) to care for my fur and feather kids while my home (along with the other 17 homes here) were being fumigated on October 12, 2007.

4. Both Julia Galpin and Ida Cesareo "kept changing the subject" every time I tried my darndest to get Ida's last name, phone number and address. I did finally get Ida's phone number which turned out to be a cell phone number. My lawyer got her last name. Boy, he's good and truly cares so much.

And, Ida Cesareo just happens to work for Julia Galpin as a nanny to her grandchildren and possibly her house cleaner. I do not know if Ida cleans house for Julia Galpin but do know that Ida earns her living by cleaning houses.

By the way, Julia Galpin also owns a house and commercial cleaning business as well as being a Realtor. Hey, my lawyer is also a great detective plus Julia advertises all her businesses on the Net. Feel free to Google Julia Galpin Realty and Julia Galpin Cleaning Service. Then voila, there you have it.

5. Julia Galpin insisted that I pay Ida in CASH for pet care and not a check. Also, Julia Galpin insisted that I give the cash to her as she checked me into the Seminole Motel ...

6. She found that place herself for me to stay while my home was being tented for fumigation on October 12, 2007 plus she insisted she transport me there on the 11th which was not requested by the fumigation company. The 12th would have been fine by them.

7. Julia signed me in at the motel's office using her own driver's license and her signature.

Is anyone else getting the picture I am? Sort of reminds one of a horror film where something gosh awful terrible happens to someone but any kind of proof just ain't there cuz careful planning assured nothing could be tracked or traced back in time. I find this most interesting. Perhaps a bit paranoid? Nope. Not at all. I've gotten to know tres beaucoup about all three culprits since that fateful day.

PS. To LS Support team: I did give the culprits' actual names above (the third being Nico Pavan, HOA president here). But, I've been assured by my lawyer John Hamel that I can plaster their names anywhere I choose since all is a matter of public record for anyone to view should they desire as well as my lawsuit against all three being a matter of public record, too. Thank you!

Dottie,

My fingers are crossed for you (and it is darn hard to type that way wink.gif ).

You know I have read and posted stories of "finds" after many years so it is not impossible and as you said, the area has a lot of things about it that fits the cir%%stances.

What a wonderful thing it would be to be Alex. Miracles do happen..can't ever give up hope.

Hugs and prayers,
Judy
rottimum
Oh I so pray it is your love! I can only imagine waiting for the person to call you back! I am saying my prayers for you and keeping my fingers crossed for you!

And I will say a prayer to my Jasper to let it be, and watch over your parrot! smile.gif

Bless you! Lisa aka rottimum

Dottie...........Prayin'...........

Oh Dottie that would be wonderful.... Sending LOTS of positive thoughts and vibes your way!!!!!

I sure hope it is your sweet Alex! Yes, miracles do happen!!!

Let us know as soon as you can!!!!!

Ren, Zorro, and Nemo's Mom
Jon730
Yes! Let us know! And if it's good news, we will have to allow drinking on the forum. Or something..
What a story if it turns out well!
AngelCareOne
Dearest Judy, rottimum, Bubba, Ren, Zorro, and Nemo's Mom and Jon. Thank you all oodles for your well wishes and caring so much. I tried to respond yesterday but broke my L arm and wrist cuz am an idiot so is very hard to type with one finger on R hand.
I'll be fine so please don't worry.

Nope. Not Alex. Very sweet finder lady described the parrot and I informed her it's a peach face love bird and probably female but I'd need to examine its pelvic spread to be certain about the gender.

She shared how this friendly parrot sometimes bites her hand but does not break the skin so I told her the two probable reasons for this parrot's behavior and what to do when that happens: Blow on the parrot's face. Works like a charm.

Had very pleasant conversation with lovely lady, but no. Not Alex. I promise I am okay.

Again, many thanks to all and Big Hugs! wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif

Always,
Dottie xoxoxox
Jon730
Well, I am sorry anyway. We were all hoping for a fairy tale ending that anyone who lost a pet would love.....*sigh*

Hi Dottie

Sending you much peace and still praying for a miracle for you and Alex. May your heart be lifted with happiness in the future. You have endured enough pain, time for letting in light and love!!

If I could beam Alex to you I would! I wish I could find the right words of comfort. But I always remember what you said to me about things being how they are. That we know that is how they were meant to be, because they are that way, and if they were meant to be some other way, they would be that way and they are not! So this is how things must be...

I have had an incredible amount of loss and heart-break also the last couple of years, and I am learning to see a broader view to this short "illusion" we call life. It is my opportunity to learn what I can and expand my knowledge/spirituality and do what I can for myself and others in the highest possible way....

I just want to offer you my highest thoughts and wishes for brighter pathways!

lotsa love

Jan.

Hi Dottie, I read your post late the other night. Man, I was so hoping. The last thought I had b4 I fell asleep was please please let that be Alex. Not to be and I'm so sorry. Nice to know there is a place you can check. I often wonder if one of those two uh hum "ladies?" had kept him for themselfs. But after what they put your dog and cat thru, probably not.
Take care of your broken arm, speedy recovery..Hugs..Ann
