Situation normal
Amy saw the vet last night, essentially for him to give her some pain relief for the lameness.
How your world can turn upside down in a moment. Far from just aggrevating the ring bone, she has actually done a tendon pretty badly. We also asked him to do an internal examination to check she was pregnant.
She's not!
I feel as if I've been kicked in the stomach. Not only do I have no foal, but Amy's future is none too rosy now either.
Being realistic, at 18 with two buggered front legs, a serious attitude to life and other horses, I have some serious thinking to do over the next week.
I simply cannot put her through another 6 months of box rest, only to face an uncertain future. So for the moment she is buted up, and in her box. But my darling girl faces an uncertain future and I am just heartbroken.
