Not sure why posting other than i know some on here may understand. since making decision this is my girls last summer the tears have stopped.I have put out mind and enjoying every moment with her. evenpicking ragwort tonight i savoured just watching her graze. I stand and chat to her lol But leading her in later i broke down. big sobs . i couldnt stop them and just stood in field crying in her neck. came from no where. I know as time gets near i will get emotinal by why tonight so suddenly. :(
 
Don't blame you babymare. Such a tough time for you. If you can, I would suggest maybe try to keep the tears away from your horse - they are so sensitive and it may upset her. Inflict them on the OH instead. Bless you x
 
It is hard and some times those emotions just kick in and take us by surprise. Underneath you know you have made the right decision for her, and for her sake you will find a way to get through your emotions
Send in hugs
 
Doing the right thing is sometimes very very difficult. Keep being brave, all the tears show is how much you care, so let them out whenever is necessary.
 
Thank you all. tobiano i understand what you say about keeping tears away and already someone who knows baby so well as been told "No tears" on the day till after. baby as seen my tears many times through some dark days of my life and tonight as always she stood just occasionaly turning and touching me. but thank you x
 
Thank you. it has been a long journey together her battered and abused before i bought her. then myself abused. she was my rock and what got me through and her legacy is my life now. she showed me in time you can trust again. thats why she is special. X
 
Been through unbelievable rubbish with my old lady. We gave her 1 last summer last year and as I brought her in tonight on my right arguing with her all the way with my 2 younger horses behaving nicely the other side both in one hand, I hadn't got the heart to get cross with her! Given up giving her a last anything now, she's virtually indestructable. Try to just enjoy.
 
Oh i am. just the simple things like watching, talking to her etc. since decision was made i have been fine. relived in away that it was made. tears had stopped but tonight for some reason which i dont know why they started . . like my title just one of those moments :) x
 
It will happen again. I used to tear up over her but we've had so many false alarms I think i'm expecting her to outlive us all! Will be a real shock when she does go. Sending happy thoughts.
