BH: March 10th – 15th, 2014 Update
March 10th
Another day over – I don’t know where time goes. Maybe, hopefully, tomorrow, I’ll be in the office for awhile to respond to PM’s, emails, etc. after the morning rush is over. And hopefully, tomorrow will be better than today. Some of you may remember Sammi and Joy? Well, Sammi was admitted to the hospital today for a scheduled procedure to debride and clean up a leg wound that refused to heal. While Sammi did well today, it is thought that the issue may be bone cancer. Lab tests should be back mid week. This is Sammi and her filly, Joy. Joy was born here in 2009. Her adoptive mom, Kara, adores them. Please pray that Sammi will heal and that she will have many more years ahead of her. I do believe in the power of prayer. Kara – we love you and the girls – keep the faith!

The farrier is coming! The farrier is coming! TODAY! I forgot until this morning!
I finally got to give Mahogany a good bath today. She’s so sweet. She munched on some hay in a stall until she was dry and then she went exploring in the main paddock. She seemed brighter today. I’m calling it a day – have a good night everyone. Please don’t forget to say a prayer for Sammi tonight – we hope to have her lab test results back tomorrow.

Oscar and Pistol got to play together today! They both enjoyed it! To hear them "talk" and then Matilda joins in on the conversation, well, it’s hilarious!
Indy’s adoptive mom has had her 3rd visit with Indy and, since the 1st visit, they clicked so well! Well, our precious Indy is leaving for his new home in the morning. It’s bittersweet but he will be within a 1/2 hour of the rescue. I’m so happy for him and for his new human!
Bronson had a growth spurt!

Indy settled well into his new home today – he made a new friend and they ran and played!

Sammi returned home from the hospital and spent some time with her family. It was confirmed that she had cancer. Sammi now runs with the heavenly heard. Sammi – your human mom, Kara, loves you so very much, always – many of us do. Letting go of someone that you love is never, ever, easy. But when you know that you are releasing them from pain that you can do nothing about, well, it is the greatest act of love possible. Kara gave Sammi and her daughter, Joy, many wonderful years together and for that we are thankful. I hope and pray that someday, soon, a cure for cancer will be found. Kara – you and Joy and the rest of your herd are in my prayers tonight – we love you all.

It’s so great to have Kylie Chapman back! She’s been out for a couple of months. Someone rear ended her and she’s been going to physical therapy.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
