Stacy,

Thank you for the update. The fact that he was up this AM and took a bottle is a really good sign. Still praying for him.

I am glad to hear that he is still hanging in there. Of course, it was working hard with the mare to hold her off that gave him this chance to begin with, so he has some fighters on his side. Lets hope that tomorrow brings even better news!

I am so glad to hear that he is hanging in there. It sounds like a good sign that he was able to get up, if only for a little while. Thank you so much for the update. Keep holding on little guy!!!!!

Stacy-

Thank you so much for the update - I have been checking for an update really often today and so scared when there wasn't one. Shauna - you and your husband are certainly special people - hope your little guy turns the corner soon.

Hugs to you both and the little one - and his mom too. This has to be so hard for her. Lots of prayers coming your way.

Thank you Stacy for keeping everyone updated and all your help. Yesterday was very difficult, my husband and I were both trying to keep up with appointments, surgeries etc while trying to keep him going... As Stacy said he did not do well yesterday, he was unresponsive and his body started shutting down. His bloodwork shows his liver is/was failing along with a host of other issues. He stopped breathing and we had to intubate him. Thank goodness he decided to do all that when we were at work with him! Had he not already been at the hospital where we had supplies for a respiratory emergency we would have lost him right then.

He is breathing on his own now and is on supplemental oxygen. He has a feeding tube and IV fluids. We didn't think he would come out of his coma or make it through the day yesterday but this morning he woke up and STOOD UP ON HIS OWN!!!! We could not believe it!!!!!!! He even took a bottle. That wore him out and he's been back in his unresponsive state ever since but seeing him wake up and stand and WALK gave me new hope. He's not looking so good right now but we aren't giving up on him just yet.

Thank you so much for all your support

As long as he isn't suffering (we are giving him pain meds, just in case) then we will keep trying. I am SOOOOOO tired, I was working on a paper for school last night and wrote the same thing twice over

What a beautiful sight this morning!!!!!!!!

His usual state since yesterday morning (except for the surprise!), this was taken at 4:30pm PST.

Oh, Shauna, I really feel for you and I do know what you are going through. The situation is either going to get a lot better quickly or go downhill. Hang in there........

 

[REO]

Thank you for the update! I've been so worried!!

Bless his heart! And yours!

You're all fighting very hard and he has the best care!

I can't believe I missed this thread. I had been following your previous thread for days, and then to read the ups and downs in this one... I just want to say how touched I am with you and your family's commitment to this little foal. Whatever the outcome, he is surely well loved.
