Goodbye my perfect Lily life is so cruel

[dogatemysalad]

I'm so sorry, I can feel your pain through your words and its made me tearful. She was beautiful and much loved. Thank goodness you knew she was fine just a short time before she was injured.

Oh thats so horrible. I lost my first horse in a very similar way. your post brought tears to my eyes with the memories of finding him in a very similar state. He too was calling for me that day in the field when I found him with that injury.

I would not wish that on any horse owner.

Hold on tight to those memories, they will stay with you as long as you live and remember that squishy nose.

Great big hugs.

I am so sorry, its such an awful shock to find them like that. I too lost a horse with a broken leg, a compound fracture of his tibia. He greeted me with a whinny when I was called by the Y.O who had said to my mum that there was 'a problem' with my horse. If its any consolation however slight, please understand that whilst your horse might have been in a some pain, it was probably not half as much as you keep thinking.

When the adrenalin kicks in it takes most of the pain away. Even half an hour after the accident when I saw my horse being held by the YO and the vet looking at his leg and shaking his head, he still managed to turn his head to whinny at me - adrenalin was taking most of the pain away.

Please don't dwell on the image of your horse in her last moments. Just remember her fit and well and when you were both at your happiest. Sadly when things like this happen, despite hundreds and thousands of lovely memories and images, all you can think about is the last moments going round and round in your head like its on loop, never ending, it can drive you mad. Please don't let this happen to you. I am thinking of you xx

Oh no, how horrible. I'm so sorry for your loss. It's clear she was loved and she would have been a very happy pony to have an owner so caring. Rest in Peace Lily.

So sorry, I lost my boy on Sunday. It's heartbreaking but I'm just trying to focus on the wonderful times I enjoyed with him. Sending you healing wishes.

So sorry for your troubles. The price we pay for the good times is missing them when they have gone

 

[windand rain]

Sorry you have lost your much loved friend rest assured if the artery and veins were damaged then the accident happend very close to when you found her and she would likely have felt little or no pain as the body numbs everything for a while She will live on in your heart and mind forever so is with you all the time

Dear OP, I’m so very sorry for the loss of your much loved Lily. I’ve never sold a horse in my life and every horse I’ve ever owned has been a very much loved family member so I do appreciate the pain of how her loss means to you. I’m thinking of you at such a sad and difficult time. At least your dearly loved Lily is now pain free and in a happy place. Stay strong and don’t be afraid to grieve for her.
As hard as it seems there will be another horse at some point in time that finds you and needs the same care and love you gave to your dear Lily.
Thinking of you OP.
Take care xxx

So sorry for your loss it must have been an awful shock. At least though you were with her at the end and also know that she hadn't been long with a broken leg.

So very sorry - your first pony is always extra special. Try to remember the good times. Still think of my beloved first pony every day and lost him just over 17 years ago.
