Long Distance Friendships :-(

[LittleChickenLady]

My horse, Stormi, has been rushed to the vet.
She's colicing and we might lose her.

 

[LittleChickenLady]

We have to put her down.

I don't know if I even want to ride anymore..

 

[SourRoses]

OH NO!!!!!!

Can't they do surgery or anything for her?

 

[LittleChickenLady]

No, it was basically a waiting game to see if she'd poop or not.
They took her from the vet's office to Purdue, which is the best place in Indiana to take your livestock in emergencies.
They've already put her down.

I've just recently stopped crying.
I'm seriously heartbroken.

 

[ChooksinChoppers]

I'm so so sorry!

 

[LittleChickenLady]

They saved me some of her mane.

 

[SourRoses]

Oh Danielle

Thats such a huge loss to go through

I'm so sorry

Theres nothing else worth saying... but that she was such a beautiful horsie

 

[Mattemma]

So sorry to read about your horse being put down.

 

[LittleChickenLady]

Thanks guys.
I've also decided to keep her halter.

I just can't believe she's gone.

I've made myself think of all the good things that will come from it.
Mostly I'm just glad she's not in pain anymore.
My grandma and another 4h person who went with her told me that she was collapsing and such.
I probably would've decided to put her down too if I were there..

I've got my Arabian still to train and even though I'm still upset about Stormi I'm going to try my best to keep my head up.
We'll be taking the horses to the 4h meeting on Sunday.. without Stormi.

It's pretty sad too because Leo, our 26 year old, is looking for her.
He stays up at the barn and keeps neighing at the trailer, waiting for her to come back..

Sniff...
