Well, after another evening of holding Jonah while trying to put little bits of food in his mouth with me in frustrated tears, Ray took his turn and it is obvious that Jonah simply cannot eat. He is in terrible shape and might hang on for several more days yet, but with us totally out of things to do for him, it seems like an unnecessary cruelty. We made the family decision and put him in a little cup in the freezer at 11:07PM Alaska time. Jonah the Wonderful Fish Boy is drifting off to dreams of tropical waters, little hidey holes, and all the juicy bloodworms he can eat.

Wow. I am sorry you had to go through all that. You really did all you could and it sounds like you made the right decision. Poor fishy baby. We all care so much for our little ones, but sometimes it is just best to let them go.

Jonah's mom,

I'm sorry Jonah didn't make it. You did so much to help him, and I hope at some point you consider getting another betta. Take care of yourself!
