Well, thanks to all of you who sent vibes and prayers for Maisie, because she really is better. Her temperature has been normal for two days, she is eating and drinking and pooping well, and not lying down any more than a normal pony. I have got her covered with a rug, in an old stable, and she has to have her medicines for another five days and stay inside, but I am sure she will be all right now. I am just so relieved.

I'm so happy and relieved that she is doing so well. She is such and adorable little thing. It had to be heartbreaking to see that sweet little girl feeling so ill.

Horeses of all sizes are my favourite creatures on this eath. It always tears me up inside when a horse is in trouble. Actually it tears me up when all animals are ill, but horses and ponies hold a very special place in my heart.

Yay!! I'm so glad she's doing so well!

All I can say is that while I'm sorry you had to go through this with her, I sure am glad that YOU were there to go through this with her. Who knows what would have happened to her if you hadn't taken her in? Everything happens for a reason, and you have definitely been an angel to this pony.

What a relief for you, Jenny! You've been a true angel to Maisie and both of you will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Here is a picture of Maisie today. She managed to get her head wet by staying right down the front of the stable, which is secured by a grill. But the rain and wind have been terrific and blew the water in. I am glad she has a blanket to keep her warm. Her mane is tied back to keep it off the swollen vein where she had phlebitis. All is normal today and she is enjoying her food.

That is great to hear Jenny.
I had horses and pony's for years and I can relate to how scared you get when they aren't feeling well. They are such big animals that sometimes they just give off the aura that they're always strong, but truth is they are not and need our love and care just as much as any other animal. Obviously your love and care has put Maisie back on her feet.

Glad to hear she is feeling better!
I absolutely adore seeing any/all equines in their cute shaggy winter coats, especially ponies and burros.
