That really does suck that you've had 2 of your babies die in such a short time.
I know how you feel. People think I'm out of my mind because I cry and get bummed out when one of my tarantulas or scorpions die and people are just like "omg, it's a BUG...get over it".
People don't view things from others' perspectives, only their own. God forbid though, should one of their beloved pets die.
