hho good vibes please work for my boy :'(

He's gorgeous!

I'm sending even more get well vibes, prayers & love for both of you, please God let there be a happy ending to this.
 
I don't come on here very often but I am following your boy's story with every thing crossed. My thoughts and everything else I can send are with you tonight xx
 
Hope your boy pulls through!

As a positive, my pony has colic surgery (colon torsion) and she pulled through and made full recovery :) that was 3 years ago and she's been a healthy happy pony since with no ill effects.
 
What a cutie, love his mane! Have been thinking of you both, really hope he pulls through, he looks like a tough cookie. Come on boy you can do it. But if the worst happens (which I pray it doesn't) then you'll know you've done everything possible for him. Lots of vibes to you xx
 
risky business

Hope your boy pulls through!

As a positive, my pony has colic surgery (colon torsion) and she pulled through and made full recovery that was 3 years ago and she's been a healthy happy pony since with no ill effects.

I really do hope my boy has the same outcome, he very much enjoys life he's never been ill :(
 
Same with my Amey, she was always so healthy and never had a problem before that day?.. Was so out of the blue! But she's tough as nails and I'm praying your boy is the same.

Your doing all you can, sending you best wishes. X
 
I'm sorry Serena. I think we all need to remember there are many types of colic surgery and I think Serena's boy has had to have some gut removed? That is one of the more serious surgical procedures in colic surgery if I recall, and it's often the secondary problems which get in the way of their recovery. I DO sincerely hope he pulls through Serena xx
 
Hope he pulls through. Sending lots of love; I lost my first horse to colic/intestinal worm damage op so I know what you're going through with the waiting. She was only 15 and I still have a box of letters from all the kids that rode her on working livery writing lovely things about how she taught them to jump or was their favourite. She was a beautiful Selle Francais ex showjumper, a toddler could handle her and I still miss her now 15 years on... Fingers crossed for you x
 
So sorry there isn't better news. It's the waiting that's the worst, isn't it?

Whatever happens, you will know that you tried to do the best for him as you saw it at the time. Fingers crossed that he rallies overnight.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Vibes for you all>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
For every raindrop out there tonight..a million positive vibes winging their way to you...(hec we might as well try to chanel it into something good!) everything still very much crossed for positive news. He is very beautiful xx
 
Serena, my boy who was 17 at the time had exactly the same thing as your lovely lad, I found him with colic in the morning about 8am, localvets sent him to leahurst within 2 hours of me finding him, he was I. Surgery about 2 hours later and had penundulating lypomas (not sure on spelling) too, he had 6ft of small intestine removed, and also had increased heart rate for 48 hrs after, they looked after him withmeds untill he started to improve during day 3, he's 17h so a big boy, but he continued to improve over the comming days, he came home after 7 days but went back after another 2 :( I thought my world was ending, I had bred him myself and it was only 4 days after I had lost my dad to cancer, so I truly know how awful you are feeling :( keep feeling positive, all the time he's hanging inthere he's in with a great chance , Oliver is 4 years post surgery now and although he's had an od bout of grumbling v mild colic he's been fine and soon thrived after the healing started /finished - he's 22 this year and I don't regret the decision at all now

I hope to hear some v posive news over the comming days of how he's improving, all the very best ((((vibes)))) for your lovely boy and just as importantly for you :)
 
Bennions Field- that gives me some hope :) I don't suppose you remember what his heart rate was? My boys is over 80bpm it was around 70-75bpm before the op.
I think if the phone call this morning is no change again we will give him another day.
Got to go to work today so won't get to see him till later :(
 
Just logged on to check this thread before I leave for work. Continued thoughts and prayers to you all. I pray that today brings positive news xxx
