What wonderful news. I think someone must be chopping onions nearby.
I am so happy for all 3 of you.

thank you, Alec.
Rosa sustained concussion.
Sadly for her she was treated by an arrogant, egotistical, self opinionated imbecile who calls himself a vet because he can claim to have some letters after his name.
Not only did he miss diagnose in the first place but his totally inadequate, even cruel, response to an animal in severe pain is just beyond words for me.
Surely as a vet he would want to do all in his power to help an animal, not walk away and just leave her? Apparently not!
IMO, he didn't know what to do, so he did NOTHING! Worse than that, he refused to even listen to the opinions of his peers and seniors when they tried to help.
I have no problem at all if a vet doesn't know what to do, as long as they then seek and take help and advice from others that do know.
This little horse should never have had to suffer at the hands of such a person... it is due entirely to his doing and neglect that she was in such a state in the beginning. All of this would never have happened in this way if another, caring vet had been treating her.
I do have medical training but I'm not a vet, and I knew what was needed, so did my vet, so did his colleagues at his practice, so did Edinburgh... why didn't he admit he was out of his depth and seek help?
Rosa is out of his grasp now and if anything good comes out of this whole awful event, I hope it is that people will not be afraid to challenge any so called 'expert' in any field, if they believe something is wrong.
Just because someone has a few letters after their name does NOT necessarily mean they're always right.
Beausmate...what a brill idea, thank you. That's certainly worth a try.
