Devastating news :(

Oh hun,really sorry to hear about Izzy,she was obviously a very special horse and friend. You must have loved her very much to have made such a sensible decision.
Just think of all the good times, and that she is now running free and with all the other loved ponies.
Always makes me very tearful as have been there myself.
Time is agreat healer.Talk about her and smile at the memories.

Loads of hugs (((())))
 
I am so so sorry to read your story, it had me in tears reading it, and I'm not usually that way... There but for the grace of God go most of us...

Big hugs from me.

Feel absolutely heartbroken for you. :( :( :( So very, very sorry that you've lost your special friend/horse. :( :( :( She was lucky to have someone who loved her so much. And you know what? I think she knew that. :)

Big hugs coming your way.

QR. So very sorry. Obviously you put her first and made absolutely the right decision. It was a tragic accident and in no way your fault.

hugs......J

Hi I know what your going through I lost my ginger mare after 7 years in a freak accident last year found her with broken leg after about 20 x rays found it was broken in a spiral pattern we had her put down as like your mare it wouldn't of worked and you knoe your horse and what they can cope with. All I can say is it does get easier but I know it won't help it just takes time and enjoy your memories. X X
 
I'm so sorry.
What a tragic accident, and thats just what it was.
I know its hard now but try and remember the happy horse you created. In those pics she looks like she is enjoying life and you did that for her!
Thinking of you.

Sorry to hear such sad news. I found the best way to cope with losing my horse (broken leg in the field) was to get another asap. May sound strange but I live where my horse is stabled and seeing the empty stable and field was awfull. I searched for a horse on loan after a couple of days and it took my mind off the awfull time I had with my mare being put to sleep. I will never forget my mare, shes in her box in the corner of my living room with a lamp on her right now! But finding a replacement quite quickly took my mind off things and gave me something positive to think about.
 
OMG. What a heartbreaking thing to happen. I really cannot add any more to what others have said just that I send hugs.
You will come through this awful time Try to remember all the brilliant times you had together. I've been there as so many of us and it is awful, but the old saying of time is a great healer really is true.
 
I don't think I've read a sadder story on this forum in years, how perfectly awful for you.
You didn't let her down though, you did her proud, exactly what a loving owner should have done.
I hope this anguish eases very soon.
To help you know that we had a similar injury and the mare struggled on for a few weeks but never really improved. Looking back I wish I'd been brave enough to do what you did. You made the right decision.

Henryhorn is absolutely right and I can only add my deepest commisarations.
 
I am so sorry for your loss. Such a freak accident.

I too have lost a horse very suddenly and unexpectedly. At the time the grief is unbearable and nothing anyone can say will console you. Please be assured that, with time, the overwhelming grief does subside and you will be left with your very fond memories of your lovely horse.

Hang in there. x
