Whose?

x2

Actually, 2 sets.
A racehorse who my friend exercises. ( broke her leg in a race )

And my 40 yr old shetland pony. He got an impaction. My mom gave him banamine to ease the pain but we couldn't do anything else.... he was gonna rupture, and was very uncomfortable so she and I put him down.

I'm so sorry.

So sorry to hear! It's hard to lose an old friend. I bawled like a baby when we had to put down my 29 year old mare. There's no shame in it.

Yeah, I did plenty of that. This was the very first pony I rode, and now he is gone....
I am gonna be so unmotivated tommorow, but I have so much to do.
Teachers are throwing huge assignments and projects at me!

One step at a time, one breath at a time. I still get teary-eyed when I think about her... She was my oldest non-human friend and always a great shoulder to cry on.

I tend to forget to breath, and then I tell myself to breath and then I start gasping and then I cry again.
Im all dried up now though.

Wait, 40 years old? O___O That's an old pony. Poor little guy.

Yeah, he was old. His face was almost all grey.

Wow.

Well, I won my hockey game today for the old man.
We will bury him next to the other death this year, the wise man Ben.
They can lay together, under the sun and snow.


Farewell Prayer

Lay down, my friend, and close your sweet eyes…

…when next you awake, you’ll look down from blue skies.

Free from the pain, you will run in full stride,

with friends from the past and through fields far and wide.

With God as your master to take care of you,

every day up in heaven, you’ll feel love so true.

And all of the gifts that you gave me each day,

will come back to you as you frolic and play.

Then some day, my sweet love, I’ll see you once more,

as you greet me with nickers as you’ve done before.

So know that I love you and with me you’ll be,

in my heart everyday as I dream of you free.
