Thoughts for Jess please.

Hi Davie, I am so sorry to hear this news regarding Jess. You have been through so much with her and its really sad that this has now happened.

I pray that a miracle happens before Monday .. Jess knows you are doing everything to help her and she is loved very much.

Huge hugs to both of you from me, Mark and Jensen xxx
 
Dont give up yet Davie, if she is not in pain and can manage on field rest please give her some time to chill and hopefully become sound enough that you can just lightly hack her .. I know things must be really hard.. I am sure you will make the right/best decision for Jess when the time comes xxx

Been a while but heres the latest.

Its not good news i'm afraid.

Jess decided to kick her stable wall at some point over the last couple of weeks and it has damaged the flexor tendon...probably beyond repair.

So for the next week she will be out in a small paddock on 2 butes a day to see if anything improves. Maybe mother nature and grass will have an effect?

We are stuck in a catch 22. She needs good work to help keep the locking patellas/arthritis at bay..but can't actually do this work while shes got the tendon issues.

Vet reckons she may,at the best make a slow plodder, maybe in 12 months time or so but one mad dash across the field may cause more tendon issues and by then insurance wont cover previous injuries(Which is scandalous in my opinion) and tbh i cant let her go through all this again..shes been so brave.

So we have 7 days or so together to pray for a miracle and after that decisions will have to be made.

Devastated.

I am so sorry to read this, I hope that these next days she shows improvement, thinking of you and your girl
 
Firstly can Jess and i thank everyone for their kind comments and thoughts over the last few difficult months. I read some to her and i'm sure she appreciated them as much as i did.

This morning my brave and beautiful girl was put to sleep next to her little paddock..no complaints.. just as peaceful as it could be..and now she is suffering no more. I am devastated but i know life must go on, and the greatest thing that ever happened to me will always be in my thoughts forever.

RIP my wonderful friend.

If God exists then when my time comes i hope he sees fit to send me to horsey heaven so Jess and i can be together again.

I am ever so sorry to hear this!

Pain free now Jess. Let Jamin show you around. Rest in peace xx

My sincere thoughts are with you. Never let the pain and sadness cloud the wonderful memories you have because they will keep you strong. Whenever I want to sob so hard because I miss Jamin so much, I remember how blessed I was to have found her. Just that one thought on its own gives me strength.

Very big hugs for you ((((()))))
 
so sorry for your loss , horses can be such heartbreakers but try and think of the good times you had together , i lost my horse of a lifetime harry to a brain tumour , 4 years on i smile when i look at the beautiful drawing my friend did of him.
 
Was so sure there would be a happy ending I jumped to the last page!

So very sorry to hear about poor Jess. I am quite sure you made the right decision but it is always a terrible one. However you know that nothing can harm her now. One never knows what the future holds when you have a vulnerable animal.

Of course there's a horse (and all animal) heaven! I'm absolutely certain of it. And I expect Jess is now doing what she was in your photo - stuffing her face.

All my best wishes to you.
 
Your last post is heartbreaking. It's not often a post makes me cry like this.

I don't know what else to say. I'm so, so sorry.
 
im so so sorry for your loss, you did so much for her and in the end, you made the right choice to end her suffering.
take care of yourself, big hugs coming your way xxxx
 
I am so, so sorry to hear your news. Whoa, life throughs some curveballs at us sometimes.

Many heartfelt ((((hugs))) for you and RIP to dear Jess.
 
Oh no, I'm so sorry to read this.

I have no doubt that you did the right thing by her as you loved her very much. I'm so very, very sorry that this was the outcome after all that both of you had been through.

RIP beautiful Jess.
 
Im so so sorry for you. You tried so hard, but i guess some things are just beyond our control. I really hope you're ok.
Rest in peace Jess xxx
 
So sorry for your loss. Life can be so cruel at times. This is the horrible bit about loving and caring so much for our animals. Until you both meet again.

Hugs to you and keep thinking of your special times together.
 
So so sorry to read the news. RIP Jess, I am sure she is galloping in horse heaven.
