So sorry to read your posts. Hope your OH is recovering well, and you're both able to take a little time out for yourselves, and to spend time with M & M.

I am so sorry. That is totally heartbreaking

I hope you and your OH are physically ok this morning @LadyGascoyne. It is so sad for you - yesterday will have been genuinely traumatic for you both so please go gently and ask for help if you need it or want it.

Oh I am so very sorry to read this, utterly heartbreaking. I hope your OH is feeling better this morning. Take care of yourselves.

 

[scruffyponies]

So sorry to hear this. I hope you can take some comfort from being there to calm her and knowing you couldn't have done more.

 

[LadyGascoyne]

Thanks everyone. I held her while she went and stroked her nose and told her how much we loved her from the moment we saw her, to her last moments.

I’m off to the GP with husband for further assessment, as he’s still woozy and easily tired.

Very very scary few hours.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I really hope that everything goes OK with your husband at the GP.

Thinking of you both.

I really hope all is well with your husband, shock can do weird things to people and a little bit of time will hopefully have him all ok again.

Oh LG what an awful time, I am so sorry to hear what has happened - she was the most wonderful girl.

Will be thinking of you, and your husband who I hope is okay - he did an incredible and such a selfless thing.

So sorry. I'm glad you were there, though and that she wasn't in pain for long. RIP Arizona.

 

[janem_g]

Such a terrible, terrible thing to happen. My heart truly goes out to you both x

Arizona broke her leg in the field today and there was nothing that we could do for her.

To say that I am devastated is an understatement.

They were all grazing quietly on flat ground, and the other two didn’t appear to move at all but when I turned around after weeding for a few minutes (maybe 3-4min) Arizona was down and couldn’t get up.

My husband and I were with her immediately and the vet was there in 20 min.

The vet could find no sign of anything to trip over or any ruts but the bone had shattered totally both above and below the knee.

Arizona was a bit away from the other two so there was no scuffle or kick. No one can find any cause.

I am completely in shock. I don’t even know what to do with myself.

She was every hope and dream embodied, with the kindest, gentlest disposition and the most exquisite, soft foal nose. I will miss my cuddles in the morning, her beautiful floating movement, her long eyelashes and quiet whickering greetings.

Words can’t express what we have lost.

Thinking of you both this morning and hope your husband is OK xx

 

[CanteringCarrot]

Sending healing vibes to you and your OH.

 

[LadyGascoyne]

Husband has the all clear. Thank goodness.

I am now absolutely shattered and I am going to bed.

 

[j1ffy]

What a shock, how awful for you and your husband. So so sorry for your loss.

I'm glad to read your hubby is ok, what a wonderful man he must be.

 

[Mule]

I'm glad about your husband, that's a big relief. I'm so sorry about Arizona, you must be in a state of shock. Life can be so unfair sometimes xx

 

[ponyparty]

So, so sorry to read this awful news. Your second post about your husband had me in tears sitting waiting for the obligatory 15 mins after my Pfizer jab - I must have looked very odd but I don’t care. The utter devastation you must be feeling! Heartbroken for you. So glad your hubby has had the all clear. Sending love and strength to you both.
