Unfortunately, I had Stary Nights new foal put down this morning. :no: He had a cleft palate and his lungs were filling with fluid everytime he nursed. There is not a reasonable surgery to correct the problem and the one that can be done, doesn't have a very good outcome. So, there was no choice left but to put him down so he wouldn't suffer further. So sad as he was gorgeous.
 
So sorry Becky. I guess you were posting this while I was replying on the other thread.

Becky, I am so sorry to hear about Starry's foal. He was so gorgeous. My heart just sank when I saw your post. I hope Starry is doing okay. Thoughts and prayers are with you. Sheila

Hi Becky,

I'm new to the forum so you probably don't know me yet. But let me be the first to say how terrible sorry I am for your loss. I seen his pic and he was beautiful. It's so sad to lose a foal. My prayers are with you on this sad day.

OK, guess I wasn't the first. Quicker fingers got there before I got the post in.
