My horse is off the critical list!!!!!!!
He has been dangerously ill with protein losing enteropathy (inflamed intestines) since September. He's had awful diarrhoea, no appetite & lost nearly 200 kg. Has nearly been put down 3 times on visits to Newmarket.
There have been countless ups & downs as he'd have a good couple of days & then get worse than ever.
About 3 weeks ago, he suddenly started to improve & for the first time didn't have a relapse, and on our checkup today, his insides aren't inflamed any more, he's put on 50 kg, he doesn't have to go back to Newmarket & he can go back to full work!!!!!
Thank you to everyone who's suggested various things to try and different things to feed him, etc. The support has really made a difference during some very dark & miserable times.
He has been on Death Row for so long that it's going to be a while before it sinks in that we've made it to the other side.
I feel like the luckiest person in the world today.
