The little filly passed away on Monday morning. Not that Iam surprised, however, I am suprised at how upset Iam.
I knew when she entered the world 4 weeks early that the chances of her living a normal life were very remote - but I always figured that while she was breathing, there was hope that she would get past those crucial first days.
She was a funny little thing. She wore Pikey's purple Weatherbeeta rug to keep her warm (that gives you an idea of how tiny she was). When she slept I threw the Onkaparinga blanket over her.... her mum, Nippa, was very good to her.
Its funny how Mother Nature sorts these things out. She had a few problems that would of had to been rectified...
I spent most of the weekend nursing her along .... I knew it was going to be a long shot.
Sometimes some things are just not meant to be.
