a friend of mine had a horse for 27 yrs, since she was 12 now she is in her 30's. she was a very good horseback rider she went to rodeos every day with this horse. 1/21/07 he coliced and he looked like he was going to pull through. 1/22/07 it is now early moring and she has been up all night with him. she called the vet in and he saidsomething had blow up inside of him. there was not hope. by now she is in tears like a waterfall. there is only one way to help him now. she said her goodbyes and left the doc still there gave him his last needle. it is only a matter of time. i called her around 3:30 1/22/07 and i found out we tried to not sound like we were crying but we both new each other were. we quickly chaged to sujected but he was running trough my mind the whole time. on 1/21/07 he was no the ground and rolling so i had him stop rolling but i saw the pain and weakness in his eyes. i knew that he was weaker than my friend thought. but something told me to stay by his side till i had to leave to go home. i think he was telling me that it was this time and not to tell my friend just let her belive and hope that every was going to be better.
