The loss of Horse or Pony

[thecremellosociety]

Been 2 days for me, gutted but seem to go into a overdrive, sorted all her things out the morning after, gave me comfort giving her things to close freinds.

Having waves of up and down and in a little dream world, done her stable and spent some time with charlie pony today, silly things, songs and stuff set me off xxxxxx

Its been just over a year since we suddenly lost our homebred shp Fudge, still cant believe what happend and so quickly, we still talk about him everyday wondering what could of been done different and why it had to happen to him, still have good and bad days thinking about him, and still have his ashes, cant bring ourselves to spread them yet. Emma Jane his symptoms and the tests he had done were very similar to your mares the pm results were acute colitis.

Been 7weeks for us. Have 2 other ponies but just want to give up, nothing seems worth the hastle anymore. Just feel like you find a good one, do everything in your financial power to give them and make them the best they can be, love them like one of your children and for what??? To be taken away from you. Miss you too much Bob xxx

I can fully understand why you do this, in some masochistic way it seems to help with the pain, it makes you cry, you remember all the lovely things...then you seem to pick up for awhile...very strange, but i do exactly the same thing..i am so hoping that if there is another life after we pass, that i do not come back liking horses again (an i mean that in the nicest way) cant take all that pain again in another life time

I really feel for you. I also put a lock of my horse's mane in a jewlery box a have. I had him 29 years and it helped me to think that he was at rest now and that i gave him the best life i possibly could and he wanted for nothing.
Time really is a good healer so please just think of the good time's whileit does!! x

I miss my boy so much,he went to the animal heath trust re v lame after pulling up over a jump.i never thought he would not come home again.! I believed that they would tell me that he would never work again ,but could come home and with a little stable rest,would join my mare as a beautiful field ornament.!
Instead Sue Dyson , said in 28yrs of surgery she had never come across such a injurey.! That it was not even fare to travel him home in so much pain!!.He was put to sleep there.My only regret is i could not bring my self to go and say good bye,i just new i would break down,and bailey was so sensitive he would have started to whittle.(i wish i had been braver and gone to say goodbye).
I too have his ashes and shoes,and not a day goes by that i dont shed a tear.!
I truely believe that we have all bean blessed to have had horses that have been so wonderful that we miss them so much,and for that we can be truely greatfull.THAN YOU BAILEY .XXX

When i started this post i did not realise that there were so many people out there feeling as I do. Each time i read these posts, they all make me cry, as I am now. I will always count Ria as my true best friend, she touched my heart in such a huge way, I feel so honored and privileged to have been a part of her life x
