Goodbye Darling Una

[Murasaki]

Our brave darling girl was put to sleep this morning after a terrible 24 hours with colic - at 25years old it seemed too much to put her through the stress of surgery. I found her in the field, lying in the shelter and thought she had died there - at least I got to bring her in to her stable and comfort her for her last hours, as well as being with her while she died. The vet was so caring - I immediately felt she was out of pain as she slipped away. We had her for 10 years, she was my daughter's pony from when she was 7.......can't believe we will never see that little face peeking over the gate or have to make her field like Fort Knox to keep her in - she liked to go and get in with the boys She was the only pony I have seen crawl commando style under an electric fence.........lost my beloved Flossie this year too - too much in one year. Thank heavens I have Lucy mare waiting at the yard for her feed - got to stop crying now and get on with it.......
