The vet said she was not a good candidate for the colic surgery. I would rather he be honest, instead of loading her up, hauling her to the clinic in Gilbert, 2 hours away, only to have her either die on the way, or spend a bunch of money and her not make it out of surgery. image


I've done just that, but the horses intestines were too far gone, but there was hope until they cut her open. And I wanted her to have every chance....

ETA: There were 5 horses come in for emergency colic surgery at A&M University that night, 3 made it & 2 didn't...

Nightgames owes me $100. If this message is still in my siggy, she hasn't paid up yet.
