My lovely, magical Fire was put to sleep late this afternoon. She had badly blown a tendon, and as any of her friends will understand, protracted box rest was not an option. I'll find more words and photos at some other time, but I wanted to let you all know that one of our forum horses has gone to join others at Rainbow Bridge. We had a happy hour together after the vet had given her some painkiller. She had loads of carrots, a good grooming and many scratchies. Unicorn leapt in her car and shot round the M25 to be with us and I can't thank her enough. At the end her mate Havoc detached himself from the herd and came to stand quietly on the other side of the fence, they surely knew what was happening. Fire was ready and let it all happen. I was able to whisper in her ear and kiss her head before she went down, and I think my hand was on her muzzle as she took her last breath. Rest in peace my wonderful Crystal Fire.
