It's been a few weeks now. Still haven't mourned really. Still feel nearly nothing. I haven't cried. They are just gone.
Stormy and Thunder.
My Shetland pony mare Stormy, given to be by another zoo, Kurrelgyre. Back in 1997. Stormy was my first true partner. 5 years later she gave birth to her Son, Thunder, after I let her play around with Miniature horse stallion.
We had lots of good years together. But both her and her son's health had been declining the past few years, even on medication they were not symptom free anymore. Had to buy Butte painkillers online and they were on that every day this summer due to metabolic disorders making their hooves extremely painful even when on the medicine for the disorders also.
Time came a few weeks ago, but I was unable to get a vet willing to come out to my remote property and they were in no shape to travel anymore. So I had to put them down by myself, alone.
I haven't talked about it with anyone.
