Betsy Rose and Cookie Update

August 14th, 2013

Betsy Rose had a good day yesterday. She is now out of her sling for about 14 hours each day! Dr. Bess Darrow (Tune-Ups Equine Dentistry) will be here later today to wore a bit more on her teeth and then she should be able to graze which I know she will love! She pretty much has quit even trying to graze – she can’t grind her teeth to chew so she’s and working for nothing. LOL She’s a smart pony!

This Afternoon:

Betsy Rose did great for Dr. Bess! As soon as the sun goes down, she’ll be out of her sling and we’ll see how she does on grass. It will be the first time in years that she’ll be able to actually grind/chew. The heat has been horrid today, so we left her in the sling with fans and the mister on her. She is, totally, spoiled.

Betsy Rose – seeing is believing!  She’s like a little lawn mower! She hasn’t picked her head up since she realized she can actually chew and swallow!!! She brings back flashbacks of good times when our human kids were growing up! The many “firsts” that we experienced! Little things that mean so much.

Cookie received a package yesterday with some nice surprises! She LOVES getting presents! Thank you Kathy Malloy, Donna Trest, Becca Bazhaw Mead and the Equine Cancer Society! And many thanks to everyone who helped Cookie via the raffle by the Equine Cancer Society! Cookie is doing wonderful. Now, let’s pray she continues to do well and that Divinity will follow in her footsteps and do well also! Uh oh – I was just told that more packages have arrived!

Before calling it a day I’d like to ask everyone to include Divi in your prayers tonight. Tomorrow afternoon, she will be going to the hospital. I pray for a good prognosis and many more happy years ahead for her.
