More worry here. Abe has become sore and is less enthusiastic about eating. He has left grain now and will finish if I go in hand stand with him and hold the bucket. He has been laying down about the same as yesterday.
His hind gets a cleaning and equine slipper. The fronts were treated with white lightning- as per Mike Wildenstein up at Cornell. He seemed much more at ease with this treatment. He claims this treatment works within 2 months. I hope so.
Abe has moved into a new stall and can be loose to wander around in the indoor arena. It is clean and dry. Hopefully the movement will allow some bloodflow to the feet.
I just worry now, more than ever.

Hi Beth. I just wanted to offer my support on the wonderful job you are doing. I know when things keep going wrong that it gets discouraging, but you have made a difference in the lives of these horses. Even if it means that the last thing they know is a kind touch and a soft voice... That's better than they would have had. Crossing my fingers for Abe.
