A couple days later, he was sold to a girl named Alicia at the stables. Habi started pacing the day they bought him because he missed his buddies really bad. The next morning, he showed up with colic. Habi usually got it all the time, and he always recovered, but unfortunately, he didn't do so well this time.
They took him to the vet, to get an autopsy. His intestines were blocked, but not flipped, which made him not able to use the bathroom. If he rolled, they would become twisted, and he would be in bad luck.
The vet gave him some fluids and oils to see if it helped him "fix" himself. There was only a 10% chance he would though. The next morning, I was at school. When I came home from school, excited to hear the great news! Once I got to the house, it wasn't so good. My mom said, "he didn't make the 10%". My heart dropped clean from my chest to the soles of my shoes. I was VERY sad, so sad I didn't have any tears to cry.
Jan.15,09 was the last day of habi's whole life. It was also the very last day I got to give him a hug and pet him. He was in so much pain, I didn't want to believe it. He was a usually happy high spirited horse with lots of go. But that day, it was like he was already dead.
It was such a horrible thing to hear...even more horrible to hear where he was buried. The dump. It was also upsetting to hear how my mom explained how they put horses to sleep. It was so bad, it made me cry, to imagine how Habi would fall into a big dirt hole. Wobbling around when he was given Euthanasia, and then falling into the hole, DEAD. Then being buried with hundreds of pounds of dirt. Just laying there. I couldn't imagine it any longer. It was too sad.
This is two days later, since the day he was euthanized. I haven't gotten over it yet. Right now he's at the dump laying there dead, underground. Not living anymore. He won't be able to do all his favorite things. EVER again, unless I bring him back to life somehow.
Someone HAS to tell me how I can see him, feel him, touch him, AGAIN! I Need to. This is one of the most upsetting things that have happened in my life. I need to bring him back to life. Someone tell me please!
