Jaime, do I need to get some more of the MSM ordered for Summer?

Hey Crystal, sure, if you want to, we are getting low. Don't feel like you have to though!
I just wanted to post because I just went outside to turn a couple of the horses out into the back pasture since it is such a nice day out. Summer was in the neighboring pasture and she got really excited and started galloping around the pasture. She did 3 or 4 laps and not only that, she threw in some really good bucks! Now I know for sure that the Cushings medication is helping her, she has NEVER done that before! I wish I had my video camera!

OK, I will get the order put in next Monday on payday. I think it took about a week to get to you last time.
Glad to hear she's feeling so great!

Here's a couple of photos of Summer over the summer. She looked so good!   |

Summer came home from Laura's on Saturday, just in time for our little mini-snowstorm. I had her in a stall and I turned her out in the arena with Cedar yesterday for some turnout time. WOW did she play hard! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes...she was galloping, doing sliding stops, bucking, and just having a good old time. Both her and Cedar were playing together and then both of them started doing that loud snorting thing horses do when they are very excited. It was like a little chorus:
Summer:
"Snort!"
Cedar:
"Snort SNORT!"
Summer:
"SNORT SNORT SNORT!!!!"
Anyway, she is feeling great. I think I might actually put a saddle on her and see how she does just walking and maybe a little trotting. She's quite sound, she's just got that poor arthritic neck, but you would only know it if you had to watch her put her head down. It obviously doesn't affect her ability to run around and play!

So do you think the supplements and shots are helping out? Or was it just one of those moments of feeling really good?

I think its a combination of the supplements, bodywork and Adequan as well as, and probably most importantly, the Cushings medication she is now on, that is causing her to feel so good. I don't think it was just a moment, I really do think she feels much better.

Great capture, Alyson! Look at that Summer-BOOTY!
I had to go back and look at the sorrowful pictures of her when she was first seized - not even the same horse.
