BH April 5th – April 7th Update
On Saturday, I bent over to put two feed tubs on the ground. As I was standing back up, one of the horses quickly turned her head and pinned her ears at another horse walking towards her. We bumped heads pretty hard. My nose is broken and my right cheek and right side of my mouth were injured but I put ice on it right away. There was quite a bit of bleeding, but by the time Robin arrived to take me to North Florida Regional Hospital, the bleeding was much better. On Sunday, I was totally amazed that the swelling and bruising wasn’t as bad as I expected. My neck hurts worse than my cheek and nose. I spent the day taking it easy but I did get a bit of work done at my desk.
Remember Divinity? She’s doing well. Adoptive/foster mom Teri says Divinity and Genesis totally enjoy each others company.
Betsy Rose gave us a little scare this afternoon. She appeared to have moved/twisted the wrong way which resulted in her being pretty unsteady and off in her back end. Dr. Julia Simonson will be out on Monday for Gentleman’s monthly acupuncture treatment and we’d like to have Betsy Rose examined and treated too. Please include her in your prayers. Hopefully, it was just a one time thing.
April 7th:
Visited with the little ones on Sunday for a minute. It was nice to get out!
Winds were very high today. Dust everywhere!
The winds literally blew away Betsy Rose’s friends!
Santana is so sweet – he’s looking for a forever home as a pasture pal.
Betsy Rose did get a treatment by Dr. Julia today. She did VERY well. The acupuncture helps so much.
Gentleman got his monthly acupuncture treatment today, too. To say it helps him is an understatement – it’s not unusual now to see him trot across the paddock! He’s a big teddy bear and is loved so very much.
I do believe he was smiling!
I may have done a bit too much today but it was great to get out some. Tomorrow won’t be as busy and I’ll be back at my desk. We’ll be posting some new auction items to help with the vet bills. Tomorrow is the last day for the current auction items – check them out at our Facebook Beauty’s Haven Equine Rescue Auction Page!
Magic – he’s just so regal. He’s come so far – I’m very proud of him.
Harvey napping after breakfast….
Look at this beautiful English Saddle that will be up for Silent Auction at our Celebration of Life on April 26th!
