SAD, sad, incredibly sad day!

[IHeartChickens]

I'm so sorry for your loss. This story is hard to read without crying. You and your DH are wonderful for caring for these animals the way you did.

You will see them again. Trust that!

some of us go out of our way to take care of the neglected, unwanted, or no longer "useful'. We give them all of our hearts. And then some.
And sometimes we make a special connection....
...when those " extra - special" creatures leave us, it is a loss that is hard to deal with...
My prayers are with you....
And you know you did the right thing!.......

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. What a tragic day. You did a great thing for Sundance, kudos to you and hugs all around. I've lost two senior citizen equine friends in the last year. my heart goes out to you to loose 2 in one day.

Tami,
i hadn't realized what was going on. I am very sorry for your loss. I have horses as well. It takes a special person to love horses and to care for the "unwanted" ones. You made a very hard decision but it was the right one. They are better off now. like you said they are young again... just think of them as your angels now.

Hi,
You are both beautiful gentle people to have opened your hearts and home to these dear horses.
Its not the best time of year to have such sadness is it.
Im sure that Ginger would have been sad to lose her best friend and that she would rather be with him wherever he went, and you helped her go there, to the rainbow.
God bless you both, and peace be with you during this hard time.

Don't Mourn For Me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't Mourn for me dear
owner kind and true.
I know that you will miss me
as I will also think of you.

We shared so many secrets;
those you wispered in my ear.
I've kept those secrets for you
lest anyone should hear.

And in return you've kept me
from being turned out in the cold.
You've fed, watered, and cared for me
while we both grew old.

But God had called and needs me;
he says that it is time
I claim that sweet reward
in a kinder, green clime.

He promises sweeter clover,
clear water, rich and pure.
I'll never have to suffer
from wounds that humans cannot cure.

I'll romp and play all day
with others he has called hither.
I'll have so many new friends
that will scratch upon my wither.

I'll be watching out for you
when comes your judgment day
and together towards the pearly gates
we again will ride away!
