This message is from: "Debby" <miss.am...@earthlink.net> I don't know Carol other than from when she was on this list, and she has posted several times to the driving list, not often. I'd read her post to the driving list and sent my sympathies. I know its a tough decision, as it should be. One shouldn't make a decision like this in haste and its doubtful that they did. I've a small pony that I've cancelled the "deadly" vist from the vet. Do I feel bad about this? Nope! Am I cruel for keeping him with me for as long as possible. I don't think so. Does this make me a bad "mom". How can you say that Lisa?? You can't condemn someone who wants another day, another hour, another second with their beloved pets. How does not attending fjord meetings or events or participating in breed shows or even having a registered fjord have anything to do with this? Does it make you a better horse owner? Does it mean I think less of my horses? Many people do not have the money to attend fjord functions that are states away? Having a mule or having a papered fjord...doesn't make a bit of difference to the person that loves them. (no offense to mules) Me...I choose to keep my little one with me as long as possible, for as long as "I" want, with no one telling me when to make the decision. It is a personal decision. It was personal for Carol and it darned well is personal for me. Debby in Tx
