Today really s*cks.....

BooBoo · Today really s*cks.....

The last thing I expected was to use my "connection" to help our childrens' riding pony, Senor, go over the Rainbow Bridge.......

This morning I was the first outside to feed everyone breakfast. And I immediately saw Senor off in a corner of his paddock holding his rear foot up. There was blood. As I approached, he tried to move, and the bottom half of his leg waggled. There was nothing to it. He had broken it.

To cut the story short...... Amy and her husband, Terry, came over. Senor had been given an overdose of banamine and a huge meal of grain (which he usually doesn't get because he'd almost foundered last year.) with hay. I spent some time with him and told him we were taking him in the trailer to see if we could "fix his leg"........Senor does NOT like to load, but this time he managed to jump in with just three legs and without any coaxing (God bless him.)......Amy and Terry ended up not being needed, except for moral support........ which was actually needed.

Our vet admitted that the break would require a specialist, that it was beyond him. And the only surgeon available quoted $6000.

Senor "knew" he was to cross over. I stroked him and told him, although he had already told me he knew.......And I thanked him for being such a wonderful riding pony for Brianna, Michael, and Channi. (Michael, especially is going to take this the hardest. I wish Larry or I could be there for him when he's told.) Brianna cried, but doing okay now.........Out of the three, it was Michael that bonded with him the most.

Larry is grieving too........He was the one who rescued Senor almost 8 years ago, as a yearling, from an abusive situation in Texas. And because of that, the two of them had a very special relationship. There's been a lot of tears today.......

We still don't really know how he broke his leg. Amy walked the paddock and couldn't find any evidence of where or how. It's probably over a half acre area.

Yes, this is a message........ And it's a harsh one.

The last place I'm going to share this is LB, but for some reason I thought I'd write about it here. Thank you all for just being.......

Right now, my very special mare, MeeToo, is about to foal. And I'm scared to death that something will go wrong. I think she's going to pop tonight. I'm so scared....... Got to go.......Thank you all again for being here.

Oh Boo I am so so sorry. Senor was a handsome boy and I remember your pic of Micheal riding him. Sending light and love for you and MeeToo...remember positive thoughts bring positive result. Feel free to call if you need me.

I'm so sorry. I can feel your pain. Remember, please, MeToo needs you to be strong and positive for her. Hugs and light -- TT

MeeToo is still hanging on to her foal, although her milk test strips say she should have had it by now......

Yesterday ended in a very interesting way. Larry hadn't seen Brianna in any of her school recitals this year, so he took her to her last one and I stayed behind on "mare stare".

Amy and Terry arrived while they were gone to bring their kids, Michael and Channi, over to say good bye to Senor (who is still in our trailer. A neighbor is bringing his tractor over today to dig a hole.). Terry, the kids, and I went to the trailer. The kids were somber, but didn't cry. We had a good talk there about the Rainbow Bridge. I told them the story of my Alpha State visions of it, both with the colt, Cody, and the old riding gelding, Freedom.....and how beautiful it is.

After that, we all came into the house and Terry began plying me with questions about ADC's (After Death Contact). It was an amazing conversation because Terry is being very open wants to know more. He lost his mother not too long ago and he also happens to have an older acquaintance who has had a NDE. He tells me that he's watched me "communicate" with the animals........including Senor, and hopes that he and I can spend some time just talking.

I could go on and on about that conversation last night because a lot was covered........but let's just leave it with -- Everything happens for a reason.
