She's gone :(

[toomanyhorses26]

My beautiful beautiful mare was put down today. I feel so weird - relief that she is out of pain,guilt that I have made this choice for me and just plain old sad. I cant believe that I wont see her again

 

[_GG_]

Oh dear, you poor thing. I really feel for you and sending huge hugs your way.

Please give yourself time...it might not all sink in straight away

Thinking of you xx

Bless you, i know how you are feeling the relief knowing they no longer suffer is out weighed by the guilt.
Thinkin of you, it will get easier. X

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I'm so very sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss xxx

 

[OscarandPenny]

I know how you feel! It is awful and there isn't much comfort even though it was for the best. There will be many triggers and reminders over the next couple of weeks however stay strong and don't be afraid to grieve. Thinking of you at this hard time

I'm so sorry for your loss.

You made the kindest, bravest decision I'm sure and there's nothing to feel guilty about.

I am so sorry for your loss. Please don't feel guilty - it is something we nearly all come to and you have done it with love and respect for your girl. Hugs x

 

[toomanyhorses26]

I am so sorry. It hurts so much, doesn't it? Please give yourself time to grieve. She'll always be with you. Big hugs to you. RIP beautiful girl x

I'm so sorry to hear that, you poor thing. As others have said, please try to not feel guilty - it's the worst feeling in the world but we have to do what's kindest for them, and she is no longer suffering. I lost my boy this time last year and was completely devastated, but it honestly does get easier in time - let yourself grieve however you need to. Sending massive hugs your way xxx

 

[Todmiester]

Oh I know how you feel, hugs from me

 

[Po Knee]

It's horrible isn't it? Try to focus on the fact that in making the decision, you were doing a kind thing. I was in your boots recently, and I know that I would rather the pain was mine than my darling girl's. Take care.

Thank you everyone - there was no real way back for her - she had been diagnosed with navicular,pedal osteitis,kissing spines,supraspinious ligament damage, suspensory damage and hock changes. She thrived on work and routine and I could just see her shrinking in personality and becoming very unsure of situations. She went with the sun on her back, a belly full of carrots and her best mate close by - I couldn't have asked for anything different
