Chilly Pepper – Tomorrow is Water Day!!!! Will you help us make it a reality?

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Friday is Fun(d) Day – Because we will have our water fixed and that is alot more fun than hauling water.

We still need around $1400 to cover the work that needs to be done to fix the water issues. From needing $2600 to now needing the rough balance of $1400 is amazing. Thank you and I have Faith we can get the rest so the horses can have the water they so desperately need.

I have some sad news. Audrey, as her photo shows, gained her much needed weight and was looking fabulous. However, between the ongoing infection that Doc realized had travelled to her bone, and her horrible arthritis, she became unable to move without excruciating pain. Even the pain meds were not helping enough. We knew the “supposedly bonded” horses were both most likely Hospice cases when we were asked to take them, although we were hoping her surgery would be enough to give Audrey a lot more time. Audrey was the happiest, most loving horse, and absolutely thrived being “Mom” to the babies. Sadly, the more weight she gained, the more her pain became apparent. Add the brutal cold and her arthritis was simply too painful. She weighed (taped) over 1,400 pounds. I was shocked as although I knew she was a big horse, I can only imagine how much it hurt to carry that much weight.

We are trying to keep Moonshine as comfortable as possible, and Doc is watching closely. We still do not know what her best options will be, but for now we are trying to give Mama and her unborn baby as much time as possible. I will keep you posted and please say a prayer for Mama and Baby.
