Thank you to everyone; we were delivered hay and supplies from Des Moines yesterday; thank you to Ryan, Kristen and everyone else from the barn! The bute, the wraps, the vetrap...the saddle pads, the boots...all will be very useful!
I know that more boxes are on the way, and it is going to be great to see these kids' faces light up again!
Dixie is doing well. She has a stall that overlooks the other ponies now and she is being very social; perked up a lot with company! The wounds look awful, but they are getting better daily. We are spraying and 'picking' out the dead stuff on her quarters and are playing some wait and see with her foreleg. We will probably have to have some bone shaved off (it is exposed), but the wound is clean and beginning to heal.
Brody is doing a lot better now his wound has been reopened and flushed. Thank you to the folks from Wisconsin who sent the huge supply of SWAT; it will be well used for both ponies, and Gunnar, the 2-year old, who still has a lot of cuts and puncture wounds that we want to keep the flies off!
The families are hanging in there, dealing with insurance adjustors and other 'fun' stuff! They both have temporary housing now, so no more hotels!
As always, thank you for your thoughts and prayers!
Bridget
