Solace Update – He’s Still Weak

December 22nd and 23rd, 2012

Solace didn’t have as much snots today. At times he is somewhat perky and alert but he does tire easily. His immune system is very weak. He has a long way to go but his attitude is positive which says a lot for a horse in his condition – he’s already defied the odds. His positive attitude will help a lot in his recovery. When a body is starved it will take protein from its vital tissues, including the heart and GI tract. I am still being asked if he will make it. And my answer is still – only time will tell.

Solace yesterday morning. It was COLD! He had is blanket and I found a fleece that kept his tummy warm too. It was a little big on him but he didn’t mind.

Getting his meds – he’s always good for this. This morning getting ready to go outside – he looks forward to getting out of the stall.

And the day warmed up – it was actually perfect! We cancelled Solace’s dental appointment for today – he needs to get better first.

But when you find a horse in his condition that greets you in the morning looking like this it sure makes you feel good and it gives hope.

Solace needs a miracle – but miracles do happen and I believe!
