Whisper Update — January 2, 2009
From Laura: I went to see Whisper today at 11:30. She was standing up, and munching on her hay. The little Miss was very bright eyed, and met me at the stall door. (She must have known that I was accompanied by an apple.) After she ate her apple, she promptly…
Lola Update from Jan 1, 2009
Here’s photos of the possible Lola taken today. Sorry for the too-big halter, that’s a yearling halter, going to have to pull out the foal halters, she’s tiny! She’s very weak and wobbly on her hind end, and stocked up behind, as you can see: …

Whisper Update — Dec 30, 2008
Whisper was down again yesterday evening..not sure yet how she did overnight. Unfortunately, I threw my back out badly and am lying on the couch in misery after a very restless night. It’s my turn to do night watch tonight, but not sure how much help I am going to be.…
Whisper Update — Dec 29, 2008
Whisper update, but its not a very good one. When Valerie, Hannah and Lisa got Whisper up last night, she had hit her head against the wall during her struggles and took a big chunk out of the inside of her mouth. Then while getting her up she swung her head and…
