Poor Prince.....

[Lava Linda]

My coworker of 12 years had to put down his 19 year old horse last night. He raised Prince from a foal, and talked about him all the time. Prince had an enterolith, a large mineral stone, in his intestines, that would require a >$4000 surgery which might or might not cure him. With a toddler and a baby on the way, and a broken transmission last week, Dave had to make a tough decision last night. Poor fellow - I can tell he's on the edge of control, with reddened eyes and not making direct eye contact with anyone. He just left for the day, to take care of arrangements. I wish I could say something to make him feel better.....
Please keep Dave and his family in your thoughts today. Thanks.
