Stress

Postby Mylares » Tue Feb 22, 2005 4:40 pm

Haven't been on here in forever. I just have been so busy lately. The Missions team at school is getting ready to leave for Argentina, I have been trying to get my shots, passport, and so many things. It really took a tradegy to slow me down. One of my horses had a premature baby 7 wk. before it was due. And it was on Mardi Gras, thank God I was home. We were out there for three hours trying to get the baby out. We finally did, a beautiful little girl. The mother lived but after a couple of days she wasn't eating. We called the vet five times, we called and called, he said it would be fine, she went into distress. We rushed her there, he couldn't help her. Fifteen minutes later we rushed her to somewhere with the facilities we needed, she had died alone in the trailer. It kills me to think we could have done something but just didn't know. The vet should have known. I know it was just an animal to many some people were even so bold to say, "Oh, you lost your horse? Awww, how sad. Guess what I did this weekend, I went shopping, blah, blah, blah...." And then, we haven't even started paying on this horse! The insurance was going to cover it but, unbeknownst to us, they need an autopsy report! I'm sort of glad they didn't cut her up. It's just horses are my life. Please would you mind praying for me? I'm kind of paranoid now, we have five more mares with babies due and I really pray everything works out well. I don't think I could handle if something happened to another one of my babies. Sorry guys for the rant but this time of year is always stressful for everyone. I realize it's not all about me either, there are people with more serious issues than me and I want ya'll to know I pray for you guys too.

Thanks guys, it really means so much. Oh, I'm sorry I forgot to specify that the baby was dead when we got it out. If it just would have waited a couple more weeks. And that's when the mother went into toxic shock.

Thanks, I hope they will. In a weird way this helped me, sort of. I've really been thinking of what direction in life I want to take. I have a gift with animals but never really paid it any attention. After this happened it's like so many things have been falling into place. I really think God wants me to help animals. Most likely a vet. And prayerfully I can do something about it next time.

I'm sorry to hear about your horse. I'm the same way about cats and dogs, and I treat my pets like family. In fact, they ARE family!

I'll pray for you and the other horses. And I do hope that God leads you into whatever path He wants you to take. You do sound like you would make a good vet.
