i lost Skylar last night to a sudden and very painful bout with colic. it came
on in the barn cross ties when i was brushing her, about 6:30 and by 8:30 at
the vet knew we could do nothing to help her. she had a ton of pain meds, but
nothing was relieving her. they think it was a twisted intestine, and surgery
had no guarantees and a high price. i made the horrible decision to let her go,
way too soon. she would have been 20 this saturday.
she taught me a lot about mares, my riding, and life in general.
i know i want another fjord in my life. the hole they leave is too great not to
fill. but the grieving will come first. she and Oz are reunited with his old
friend Bogie at the bridge. better hope they have an infinite green pasture up
there, because i am sure these three will be cleaning it up…….
