[RC] Problem Child...the saga continues - Timothy WordenA while back some may remember I posted about my problem child Quarab, Poco. BTW, he just turned 6y/o yesturday, April 14th. Well, the saga and struggle continues with him. Poco was just diagnosed with a side bone on his right front. My vet gave me the x-rays to look at and take to the farrier, so I decided to scan them and post them on my website. I thought this may be of interest to many people. Some vets may find these pics a good reference. And perhaps I can get some words of encouragement from those who have had to manage a horse with a side bone. I had big plans and goals for this 15hh athletic gelding, the biggest being 1-day 100s. I still hope I can achieve some of them. http://www.carolinadistanceriders.com/sidebone.htm Tim ============================================================ The whole ride experience can be very hard, and at times you question why you put yourself through such abuse. But then you remember all those moments when you pop up over a hill and are suddenly surrounded by the most stunning views. It's just you and your horse and for a moment time stops and you can hear the angels sing. Therein lies the addiction, at least for me. ~ Leslie Beyers ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
