prayers for my pony
bo is foundering (a condition in which the connective tissue in his feet become agonizingly inflamed) and it seems to be pretty bad. vet is coming this afternoon, but there's not much he can do beyond what i'm doing other than give me a prognosis. it's not the death sentence it used to be. i can think of several horses i know who recovered reasonably well from founder, the main one being our beloved april. but not all do, and most who do aren't ever really sound again.
i'll be sad if i can never ride him again, but i'll gladly nurse him and be grateful to have his adorable face nickering at me in the mornings when i go out there if he can just not be in pain.
all prayers and mojo gratefully accepted.
