A Better Day

Friday the 22nd was a much better day. After a somber Thurs night where CMK thought she was going to lose her beautiful filly, Fri ended in a smile. Filly seemed to have turned around & was full of herself. She was bucking & kicking, body blocking her mom, & even kicking her mom. What a little BRAT! She pulled the drying leg wraps off the fence & was biting the rails. She even had the nerve to bite CMK's finger. Not that CMK minded in the least. Her wraps & splints were removed & her legs were given a 1/2 hour breather, the longest she's been able to go unsupported. It was so awesome to see the soles of her little hooves on the ground, instead of being on tippy toes. This could just be the turn around everyone has been waiting for anxiously. The diarrhea has still not resolved so the Bio-Sponge treatments will continue. Filly is still not running a fever so it's felt the diarrhea is in fact the result of the antibiotics. A trip to town will be made tomorrow for probiotics. Thank you everyone for your support & well wishes. Keep those good thoughts coming because they are indeed working.
