his fate was horrible... now he knows that humans can and DO love him. He now knows a full belly and no one chasing him... he knows a beautiful sleek brushed coat again and a mane and tail that can swish in the wind... and perhaps he will know the dignity of passing over the bridge swiftly and painfree... because someone SAVED him from the potential for a slow, painful death without anyone who cared.
You DID save him...
it isn't about saving them all and making them live... you aren't proving you can keep them alive, you are proving you know compassion and have strength to let the right decision pass... and the strength to help in the hardest decision of all... it's about quality of life, not quantity. When his bad days outnumber the good ones, it was time... his eyes tell the tale. he is trying to survive until someone loves him... enough to let him go.
What a blessing you have been to this grand horse, who gave it his all... and had a blip of life where no one loved him enough... now he found a savior. fly free Hercules... jump higher, fly swifter...
