Got a frantic call from Leesa this morning to come as King was down. Our vet was out of town. Bye the time I got the 3 miles to her house King was gone.
King had not been feeling well but was doing better, his bloodwork had shown his mineral balance was out of kilter but that was it. Guess earlier last evening he got to feeling bad again and they called their back up vet and he told them what to do and he got to feeling better and to bring him into the clinic this morning. Leesa had been up every hour or two to check on him as he was in her front yard and she could see him from her window.
She found him down at 4:00 and I called my emergency back up vet as her vet was not available and our regular vet was gone for the weekend. It was only a few minutes later that Leesa called and said he was gone.
King and Leesa were going to Nationals to try and finish his HOF in Roadster--he needed less than 15 points to finish and Leesa had leased him from his owner Beverly in hopes of finishing it for her.
I almost crammed King down Bev's throat when I knew he was up for sale and had said that if she didn't buy him I woul and as most stories go, that was the beginning.
GOOD BYE DEAR BOY--Take your cart and flying we will watch you streak across the sky as you take you last lap. You will leave a deep hole in not only my heart but in the hearts of everyone you came in touch with.
Bev and Leesa--you are both in my thoughts and prayers.
FLY BIG BOY, FLY--you were one of a kind
