Don't mess with her, she has a fire inside

My mare died today. I was lunging her to sweat out her stubbornness and release some of that energy she decided to have when I tried to treat her sunburned nose. She wasn't thrilled with moving forward and proceeded to play helicopter on the line. Then she reared and went down shaking. I thought she crushed her eye but after removing the tack her eye was fine and I can only guess that she landed on a temple and crushed her head in. She was gone before I could get the bridle off of her. Just a split second of a stupid attitude and my mare I waited my whole life for was gone.

I can't handle losing them this way. Sickness, old age, injury, something I can treat and ease along I'm fine. But freak training accidents when you've done everything correctly and you've worked so hard to get them healthy... I can't do it.

OMG I'm so sorry!!!! :o :o
Maybe it wasn't the fall, but something else (aneurism?) that caused her to fall instead??

Not that it makes you feel better.....so tragic and shocking. :no: :no:

Huge hugs to you.....

That's what I was thinking as well. I've seen a horse have an aneurism and it's instantaneous. :no:

Regardless, huge hugs to you. :hug: :hug: :hug:
