Louise! Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner and that I didn’t see this until just now! (I’ve been in that time warp of downed servers, etc.)
I’m so sorry to hear it’s gotten worse. Keep us posted on anything you hear! I’ll keep saying prayers for both of you!
Louise, that is super news for sure! My best to both you and Ms. Promise! Maybe a little bit of metamucil each day will help to keep her regular! A joke! Take care and give her a big kiss an’ a apple when you can!
Louise, just saw your day from Hell. You know every paw at Kryswyn (and that’s a LOT of paws!) is pressed for you and Promise. And I’m jingling a curb chain!!!

Great post Wicky! 
I second it!! (How’s your eye btw? )
Thoughts are still with you and Promise Louise!
When we had a horse showing colic symptoms, we put her in the wash stall. All horses poop in th ewash stall, and it worked for this horse too! My prayers go to Promise too.
yet? Anxiously awaiting news.
I’ll be thinking good thoughts.
She sounds like a fighter, so hopefully she will pull through.
Dearest Louise, I am sending you tons of warm thoughts and get well vibes to Promise. 
Please keep us updated. I will be thinking of you
I am so sorry to hear Promise is not well. 
I am sending prayers and good wishes to you and Promise.
{{{{hugs}}}} from Angela and Ruby, Danny too.
Ruby colicked last month and scared me silly, luckily it resolved, (gas colic). I had some terrifying moments til she pulled thru.
Keep us updated…
Keep the faith! … one of our mares had the exact thing happen 2-3 days after foaling … the mare had undergone colic surgury two years prior and is a ‘sensitive’ one … and she was showing some of the same syptoms as previously. We had her on a drip and gave her two bags of fluid … she was better for the day and then started up again that night … this time the vet went in and found that the some intestine was over the top of the spleen and trapped … arranged for the drug to be shipped out from the local vet hospital that would shrink her spleen … but said to turn her and the foal outside and see what happened in the meantime. She walked around for awhile and saw all her paddock cronies over the fence and then … relaxed! Vet same back with ultrasound and everything was fine …and has been since. Apparantly it’s not that uncommon for the movement of the horse to slip it back to were it should be!
Good Luck and hang in there!!
