The vet, he doth commeth tomorrow!!!!
Vet has suggested the field rest isn't working and we now have two options, so by 6pm tomorrow I will know if Q will be put forward for surgery or gently brought back into work. I know this sounds drastic but vet says he MUST be feeling a bit better to clear two 4ft high fences... And not be lame...
So tomorrow he will be re-assessed and a decision made. I am absolutely pooing myself. I know surgeyr will ultimately be a good thing, but it scares the hell out of me, my baby going under. Especially after Cheyenne.... But I'm also scared that he'll trot up sound then deteriorate once under saddle..
Please can everyone send good vibes to my Q boy, I promise to post pictures of his gorgeousness tomorrow.. once I've stopped shaking!
Thank you for the advice on my other thread - particularly angelofben who has been a real support throughout all of this with her success story with Alps!
