Unhappy We lost Dixie and her foal today, Pic of me and Dixie added

I'm very sad as I type this, my neighbor's mare Dixie had to be put down today. She had complications from foaling, the vet came out and unfortunately couldn't save Dixie or the foal. RIP sweet Dixie I love and miss you very much. She may not have belonged to me officially but I helped to take care of her and loved her.

Dixie.

Unhappy

Thanks everyone, Dixie was a very sweet girl and so gentle too. Every effort was made to save her but it wasn't meant to be.

Here's a pic of me and Dixie I found when I was looking through all my pics. Luckily for me since this pic was taken i've lost 20 pounds.

Me and Dixie.
