He got four shots of Lord-knows-what. Every day he drinks chamomile tea - and he's lots better! He eats his softened food and even - though with difficulty - some hay, even had a valiant try at some carrots! So that makes me very, very glad, because it means he will live.

Unfortunately he has to have major dentalwork done - two teeth extracted, work on all the other teeth. That is not easy on the horse, very expensive, very difficult (since the horse dentist wants electricity which we don't have, we'll have to rent a generator; but then that particular specialist seldom shows up the day he has us scheduled for. Also we have an open stable without electricity and it's bad winter weather here) and terrible for my nerves, because I cannot stand to see a thoroughly tranquilized horse, I'm always afraid they'll break their legs... And the horse is not mine, belongs to my SO who comnes from a farm. Farmers have problems with putting money into "useless" animals *sigh* But It will get done, if later that I wish for.

I said much too much, didn't I? I love them so, that's why :)
