Lovely tribute, i am so sorry for your loss i know how it feels having lost my mare that took me so far eventing and i am lucky to be left with her son but even after 4yrs it still hurts. Remember the good times, you have so many with her. thinking of you, you have inspired me to aim higher with my boys and i thank you and Connie for that.
I'm in tears, that was such a beautiful tribute for a superstar horse. You looked to have such a fantastic partnership. Massive, massive hugs for you hun. Thinking of you.x R.I.P. Connie. x
Oh Laura, what can I say? I know the pain of loosing a much loved and talented friend. I cant even promise that the pain will pass, it just lessens a little for the most part and one day you will be able to smile at her memory, but you will also have days when something brings that pain back. Your poem has just done that to me. So all I can say is grieve, cry and do be ashamed to do so..
What an amazing tribute, the most poignent and heartwrenching I think I have ever read- written with so much love and devotion to your brave mare which proves what a great partnership you had. Clearly Connie lived with the same love and devotion for you, truly inspirational.
Such a cruel world sometimes but you know that above those clouds she is looking down and smiling on you with all her heart and that will never change. x
What a wonderful and moving tribute to a mare who obviously gave her best to someone who loved her so so much - very moving and what a lucky horse to have such a lovley owner and life. xx
Snif. I had to stop reading this earlier when in a public place. Laura, what a beautiful tribute. I'm so sorry for what you are going through, there are no words. But you put your feelings so movingly. xx
What an amazing, heartfelt tribute I'm also in tears in the office. Just remember though, as you say, she truly lived those eleven years. My thoughts are with you.xx
You were both very lucky to have found each other - yours was a partnership that most can only dream of.
Yes it hurts like hell now - but it will get better with time and then you will be able to remember and re-live all those golden moments and feel happy.
lots of hugs to you Laura - you will get through this.
