Bev, Thank you ever so much for the beautiful Draft Horse Head Pins..it is surely our Nellie, they choked me up and I will give Theresa hers this evening.
Lucy, Thank you for the beautiful poem..this brought on the tears in full force. I would like to share this poem with everyone, as I thought of Nellie, Lil Angel and I walking together along with all the others we have lost.
To My Best Friend
The day they laid you down to sleep
I prayed to the Lord your soul he'll keep
Until the appointed day and time
when together we'll meet; and all will be fine
With all God's creatures great and small
go run and play now, have a ball
No more aches; and no more pain
just bright sunshine; no more rain
Rest in peace; for now best friend
Cradled in God's arms; to the end
Dream of that special; day and time
when we'll meet at the Bridge; one last time
Although we'll be separated; for a long time
we'll be together then; and all will be fine
We'll cross Rainbow Bridge; side by side
with a soft warm feeling; deep down inside
Once again then; all will be fine
we're together forever; till the end of time

PLEASE continue to blitz Nellie's story to family, friends..everyone! Do it for Nellie and all other PMU mares that must endure this inhumane treatment.
On a positive note, Apple and Jerri's little ones will never know this life!!!
Thank you to everyone and I mean everyone for all of your support. We are in this together all for the HORSES.
