❤️ An Update on Jessie ❤️
Jessie has been examined by several vets this week, and sadly, her prognosis is heartbreaking.
Her foal is approximately 200 days into gestation. If we can get her to 310 days, there may be a chance of delivering the foal by Caesarean section. Sadly, Jessie's own chances of survival are extremely slim. The damage to her abdominal wall cannot be surgically repaired.
For now, Jessie is happy, comfortable and thankfully showing no signs of pain. We're taking things one day at a time and continuing to monitor Jessie closely with our vets, whose advice has resulted in this decision.
For perhaps the first time in a very long time, she is being loved, properly fed, given fresh water and receiving the care she has always deserved and letting her enjoy whatever time she has left. ❤️
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has donated, shared her story or sent kind words. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us.
