Today he gets his shoe back on but I'll still have to keep his hoof immaculately clean and packed, just like Marion said. So we're still not back to normal.

You said abou...Hi Cindy, another letter about H.T. You said about the abcess being black gold when it drained. He's another great example of black gold. H.T. had to have colic surgery in oct of 2002. After his surgery for a retro-flexed pelvic flexor, it took about two days for his first bowel movement. And now we always refer to it as black gold. He still will have a little trouble with his tummy at times. Once they have colic surgery, the vets refer to them as having a glass stomach. Very sensitive to everything. So, that my black gold.

Like I had said in an earlier letter to you, that H.T. was lame for months and it took several for it to come to a head and blow out of his sole. He was up very high and didn't pop out at the cornary band. It just keep going downward and it took four months to end. You are so lucky, we actually Wally is, since his pain will just about be gone in another day. Just keep that sole dressed and keep out any more dirt and grim from infecting it and you will be golden in no time. Lucky Wally to have ended it so fast. I am very happy for the both of you.
