This morning when I went and tossed hay to the girls I noticed Mama, my mustang and right hand girl who I've had for seven years, wasn't up with her buds. I thought shed stayed out back munching and thought nothing of it. At 11 she was up nibbling hay and looked fine.
By 1 pm I couldn't get her back on her feet. Finally got her up with the help of my mother... We treated her for colic, pumped her stomache, and started walking her.
She still hasn't passed a poop and is now wobbly, throwing her head, etc. The vet is on his way he didn't want to risk her falling in the trailer. He's been our vet for three years and knows Mama is NOT like this. She's a royal pain and aggressive to anyone but me. She has her sweet side, yes, but this isn't it.
He thinks she has west nile, or a mosquito related disease from her over the phone symptoms. (Drooling, droopy lip, wobbling when she walks head down. Etc)
He's on his way and I'm a nervous wreck. This is NOT my week. I'm typing this on my phone so please excuse it if its messy. I just need some big time prayers from all of you at BYC.... Please pray for us. This horse is my life I'd be devastated if she's not reversable...
