Shadow survived her operation and is doing extremely well. While still very thin, she occupies every waking moment eating and playing with Pete, a 20 month old gelding. She, like so many abused horses, loves being around "safe" people.
A special thanks to those who donated to Shadow's
fund. Your dollars paid for the medications, wraps, and other supplies to help the healing process.
There's no telling how long Shadow will be with us. The chances of surviving the operation were small, but she did. The wound is closing rapidly, she is gaining weight and her attitude is very positive. All of these steps surprise those who saw her in early September. Wouldn't it be great if she lived another 10 years? My advice? Don't bet against that happening.
