Mira

I'd love to tell you the story of my test yesterday, but on the same day, Ani had to put Mira down.

I don't know the details except she succumbed to age rapidly, over the weekend.\

***
Update 9 PM Sunday:

I asked if I could help her. She just responded that she needs a "removal" service, I have no idea, sorry. Baasha died at the clinic. Apparently Mira is still lying in the field. I have no idea. Why would a vet euthanize and not recommend removal? !?!?

So sad for Ani. I've never been thru it with a horse, don't even want to imagine. 😢

Is there any way to let her know that there are others who grieve with her? Because we do.

Sorry to hear this sad news. I'm glad she did not linger and suffer, but still. . . I know that your friendship will be a comfort to her as sadly, you know this pain only too well. I hope that your empathy will bring her comfort. Be strong.

Camryn, I offered to be there today for her, but I was too late. *sigh*

KB, I wish I could, but my blog is secret from the people in Germany, aside from my husband and his family (who do not read it because English is hard), and those few sneaky ones who found it (grr). I refer to you guys as "my American horse forum friends" though, if that makes sense to her, I don't know. I'll try to find a way to let her know that people she doesn't know are also saddened, through my "horse forum.".....wow I'm such a liar.

Kbryan, I offered to be with her today for the euthanasia, but her answer surprised me, "She's already gone." !!! I told her I am here when she's ready to talk. I'm HOME again, I can help! Mira is greeting Baasha in heaven, I know horses go to heaven, the Bible says there are horses, so why not ours..? I'm jealous of Mira right now. I've been crying for poor Ani. And myself, never getting to say goodbye to the good girl Mira, who kept Mag in line when he wanted to misbehave. Wish I'd taken more photos. WIsh I could give her one last treat.

So sorry for Ani's and your loss. It's sad that you didn't get to say goodbye, but maybe a blessing too.

I am so very sorry. I am glad that Mira was able to stay with Ani until the end.

I'm glad Mira had such a loving and caring person as Ani. All of Gods creatures are precious to Him. Of course Mira is in heaven. I'm glad that you and Ani have each other as a friend .

I'm so sorry for Ani, and I'm sorry you and Mag lost a good friend in Mira too. It is so hard for those left behind. If you can, send her our love.

Shirley, Teresa, NM, Carol, Aarene, HH, Irish, I will do my best. I texted her "I'm here when you can talk again" cuz I know November, 2012, I didn't want to see anyone for days. Afraid they'd see my face and say, "What"? and then I must say something! I couldn't. I was incompetent for a week, at work.

NURI/Irmgard! You. I don't know how your English can be so good. "Kick out of" and "Put your mind at ease" and "Tempted to tell" and my husband asked, "What is lenient"??? Most Germans do not know the word "inhibited" or "restrain". But your German is fantastic. *lol* Thank you for the praise. I am reveling in it now. That you know "Wegtreten" means you might actually be German. Frankfurt is the most American city I've visited yet. Would love to see it again at Christmastime.

Lytha, sorry, I meant to write a private message and, relying on comment moderation, didn't anticipate my real name and full email address appearing in your comments section. Hate to bother you, but could you please delete the address? I've been very careful to avoid spam and worse - until now... :( (I, too, like my privacy!) Vielen Dank für Dein Verständnis.

lytha said...

Nuri, Sorry I didn't catch your bold text request. It's gone now.

nuri said...

Thank you, I appreciate it! And thanks for complimenting me on my English:)
AND extra congrats for not just passing but passing with flying colors!!! You should be awarded an honorary motorcycle helmet. Mindestens.
