Does any one have any experience with JAW TETANUS?  Please help.  Below is a part of the email I received.



"My cockatiel developed a jaw tetanus which the vet had heard of but had never seen, caused by bacterial toxins which inflame the jaws.  The internet said euthanize but the vet tried a different antibiotic and tube feedings, physical therapy etc.  She has been at the vets a week and the vet thinks a week more, but I don't think I can see spending that much money, the bill is already almost $1000.  So I will bring her home tomorrow and just hope that she can eat enough to keep alive.  I have never had so much trouble with birds before.
