Thank you hazyxmas and queenbee, they are indeed lovely ideas; I have asked to ask the vet, it will hopefully help her to feel like she still has a 'piece' of the horse, I'm thinking maby a portrait/keepsake combined x

Thank you for that input, it's a helpful point of view, that's my mothers line of thinking, more things and people to keep her mind busy and offer support without being 'involved' and therefore blameable
