Im so so sorry to hear of your tragic loss, i've always admired your mare from the pictures in your signature. May she rest in peace.

Thinking of you at this very sad time...
 
OMG I am so sorry, What an awful awful shame she was taken from you at such a young age. I cant imagine how you must be feeling.
She was a beautiful girl.

Lots and lots of (((HUGS)))

RIP Pokey

xxxxxxx
 
Oh that's terrible news & such a shock for you.

Pokey was beautiful. I too lost my beloved lad who I had owned since he was 6 months old, I know exactly how you are feeling. I couldn't even eat for days & was devastated. He can never be replaced but, I am so proud to have owned him. Time is a great healer (although you will not believe it at the moment). The day after I lost him, my Mum took me out to try to get my mind off of what had happened. We called into the garden centre & whilst walking around I came across a stone with the following inscribed on it......

If tears could build a stairway
and memories build a lane
I'd walk right upto heaven
& bring you home again.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing, it was and still is exactly how I felt.

Two weeks after, my YO lost her young mare to grass sickness it was very sudden & at first we had no idea just how ill she was. She had only had her for 5 weeks & we both felt so guilty that this poor mare hardly knew us & was suffering so badly with relative strangers. She was just quiet and not interested in food. It quickly took over her & she got to the stage that the poor love couldn't even swallow.

You MUST remember that Pokey loved you as much as you did her & she will have known that you did everything you could for her.

Don't be afraid to let out your grief, anger & utter shock at what has happened. We are all here for you xxxxxxx
 
I cried so much when I read this post last night.
My heart goes out to you. We lost my sons beautifull,talented young mare in a horrific accident last year.
I know the intense, unbearable pain you must be feeling.

It does get easier given time. Until then our thoughts are with you. God blessX
