I just launched my Youtube channel! I’ve been working on the first series of videos about the beautiful rescue horse Irena! I just made my first seven minute video with voiceover. It was quite the ordeal at least for me to learn how to use the editing software, but I will get better and more proficient as time goes on. I’m so excited to share with all of you https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9HF6lJ-LgzI&t=91s&ra=m
who are fans of my mom and Potomac equitation—you all are the backbone for me and I just love that I have this Facebook site for my mom and now I get to share my YouTube journey with you all as well!

Hello friends, I wanted to share some pictures of how well Ms. Irena is doing. She’s looking sleek and lovely. I still haven’t been able to wash her face very well, so her face still looks dirty, but her skin condition is almost all the way cleared up and she’s really showing the benefits of some good groceries and a lot of love.

Beautiful moonlit evening with Irena, she is doing so well! Sometimes I ask myself is this the same horse from six weeks ago—I can’t wait to see where she is six weeks from now with lots of love good groceries, peace, tranquility and kindness. I really feel blessed and happy that I have been able to help save this amazing horse. 🐴💙🌕

Thinking about Irena this morning. She has been in my life for almost 30 days.Best news the horrible sticky Feedlot tag fell off of her mane, made me so happy. She’s doing a lot better but still has a long way to go. I wrote a Long update in her GoFundMe page. I will include the link here https://gofund.me/4e7058542 if anyone is interested in reading more details about her and her journey but I am considering taking down the GoFundMe and transferring her story to a YouTube page but I feel like I need to get better at making videos first. I’m just feeling really blessed that she’s in my life. I can definitely see some wonderful changes.

I was responding to Elaine's comment and I wanted to share the comment with all of you all here. I invite all of you to share in your stories and tell us what’s happening now and your involvement with Horses or when you were involved with Horses. I feel like it’s an open invite to all of you to share in your stories and tell us what’s happening now and you’re involvement with horses or when you were involved with horses or farm life. I feel like it’s a big extended family in a way and I just want to relay to you all that when my mom was sick one thing that she wanted to feel reassured of in the end of her life was that she had made a difference in peoples lives, and I truly believe she did, she made a beautifully lasting impact on people's lives with her wonderful generosity of spirit, her over the top Christmas cookie extravaganzas, to moonlight hayrides, to cross country rides, swimming across the Potomac River on horseback-- letting people be free to explore and love horses and open spaces the way she did-- with abundance! To me this site just reinforces that every time I hear one of your fantastic stories and how you have a farm now or had horses, a 501c3 horse rescue, had a therapeutic riding school, or you became an amazing hunter jumper show rider-- all these stories, these memories-- this is the fabric of our beautiful lives and now they’re woven together. Hugs to all of you! Jackie's daughter, Lorelei

I couldn’t believe my own eyes yesterday when I went out to see Irena, I noticed her hair is growing back!! The picture here is of her rough side that just two weeks had huge patches of hair loss and now it looks like there’s some black fuzz! I’m so pleased about it and happy for Irena! Still a long journey ahead with a very reactive mare who has been through a lot, If only I could read the sad story in her eyes and know what happened to her, but it’s in the past now… What I do know for sure is these last two weeks have really started to turn things around for this lovely horse. She’s really beautiful!💜🐴💙
