Update from Gingerwitch

oh GW im so very sorry things turned out like this,it was the outcome we all prayed wouldnt come. big lad would only say he loved you -no blame for anything that happened. you tried your heart out for him and you should be so proud of yourself that you were prepared to go to the ends of the earth for him-that is something not many people could do .you are brave GW and we are united in saying you are not alone (((((((hugs))))))
 
I don't often comment on these threads as its normally all been said before me, but im sat here in tears. I had so been hoping for good news. You went above and beyond for the big lad and have nothing to be forgiven for. You gave him his peace when he needed it , sending you cyber hugs
 
GW, been silently following this thread and, like everyone else had fingers crossed. So sorry - if only every equine could have the benefit of such a dedicated mum. xx
 
I'm so so sorry. You tried so hard and did absolutely everything you could have done for your boy. You've nothing to reproach yourself for. Hugs xxx
 
So so sorry to read your update. Been checking site like so many others rooting for you and the big lad. You did so much more than anyone I've ever come across for your boy - it wasn't to be. Sending hugs to you xx
 
Please do not blame yourself - no one could have cared more or tried harder than you and your OH, Big Lad was so lucky to have you and you have my (and I'm sure everyone else's) utmost respect and sympathy. I really hope in time you can focus on the good times you shared with him before this tragedy x

Same here - in tears for you GW. Have been logging in every day to check on how big lad was doing. He tried as hard for you as you tried for him and he obviously loved you as dearly as you loved him. You were the best friend he could have wished for, ever. Huge hugs to you and your lovely OH from all of us here. We're all thinking of u and are so so sorry to hear the news. Take care xx
 
Gutted for you GW.
Sometimes, things just aren't meant to be :(. Do not beat youself up over this, you did everything and more for that horse.
 
As sad as any loss is that I've read on here, none have really brought me to floods, not just tears but floods. I'm here feeling so so sad to read he has gone over the bridge. Your dedication has been astonishing. Just so sorry the outcome wasn't what we all had hoped for.

Take care of yourself GW, you have done nothing wrong. Many hugs.

God bless you Big Lad. x
 
Oh honey I am so so sorry to hear that you had to let him go :( If there was ever a case of an owner going above and beyond the call of duty for their horse it was you with him.

RIP Big Lad, much missed.

Thinking of you GW, time to look after yourself now :( **hugs**
 
I cannot add to the words already said. Dreadful, dreadful news and devastating for you. Your boy died knowing more love than many have or will know in a lifetime.

Aww, I am so, so sorry.
 
So, so sorry to hear your sad news. There are no words I can write that will take away the pain you are feeling now. In time you will realize that you did everything you could, far more than a lot of others. You have absolutely nothing to forgive yourself for. Please take comfort that your boy was truly loved and that you were with him at the end. I know that so many HHO'ers were praying with you for a different outcome.
Take care of yourself. xxxx
 
He had a one in a billion reaction to the sedative - we tried all night to re-hydrate him, and all morning - and all afternoon.

His system just could not take anymore - i held him in my arms - his big heavy head for hour upon hour as we iv'd him.

The poisions finally got too much, and even with 3 vets to hand I had to make the call - my poor poor boy.

I will never ever forgive myself

OMG so sorry. I'm really upset for you although it sounds like you did everything you could. (((hugs)))
