The note from Coreene this morning was that Willem “practically mowed her down to get to his apple,” so he’s still hanging in there and fighting hard. 
Hooray!!!
Mucho continued jingles and prayers for both Willem and Coreene.

Perhaps if you had a margarita machine, your mom (you LOFF her) could put the syringe slop in a margarita, and it wouldn’t be so bad.
Jingling for you in hot, hot, hot Arizona.

Coreen, you hang in there. I don’t know if you all remember my previous horse Carlton and all the terrible times I had with him and his pedal ostis that then turned into a severe case of founder, but he is doing very well now. I know how very painful it is to watch Coreen, but hang on, many horses can and do pull through this. I ended up pulling his shoes and taking him to a woman who does a “variation” of the Strasser trim and she put him out 24/7 and worked on his feet daily, and he is doing very well now. He also had sinking and rotation. So don’t give up. I will continue to pray for you and Willem.

Life without horses is possible, but pointless…
What is it about these wonderful creatures that brings out the best in us all?
I am crying, reading this last post of Coreenes, and thinking about Willem and Slim and just what constitutes A Good Day when nothing in partcular is going wrong…
and what constitutes A Good Day when the world has caved in and one begs for, cries for, pleads for, one tiny ray of hope.
Begging, praying, pleading, jingling, for our friends…
Oh Willem, your are making me cry… I can’t cry at work!! Oh please get better…?? Hang in there both of you… Bless your hearts…
Ugh, Coreene!
I know personally how much this sucks. I went through all of it with my sweetest Whiskey.
Willem WILL be ok, and so will you. His feet hurt, but they’ll get better and he’ll back to his raunchy self in no time!
If you do have any questions or just want to blab to someone who’s recently gone through it feel free to drop me a line.

Coreene, I’m adding my jingles, thoughts, and LOTS of virtual hugs for you.
Get better, Willem!!
Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.
Added jingles from Horse Country!
Hoping today is THE day - the day you wake up and all the hurts are gone.
Hugs and prayers for our friends Coreene and Willem.

Dammit is right. Don’t know what else to say, except that I’m thinking of you both verrie mucho.
We know everything is being done, but also that this is up to things 'way beyond human control. Which is a real bite, but all we can do is hope, pray, jingle, think positive, and believe me, we’re doing that as much as it can be done.
Hang in there. “Kick on” certainly worked for Aiden, I just hope Willem doesn’t take it the wrong way 
He’s not really a pony, and I’m really not “pony aged” either.

Oh Willem! We always knew you were a dynamite guy…but you didn’t have to take it this far. Tell those fussy feets to shape up!!
We’re praying and jingling for you and send much loff to you and your mother.
Willem, I’m so delighted to hear that you’re feeling better. Good thoughts and jingles continue to come your way.
xoxo
My heart is in my throat, I am deeply humbled by all your kind words, wishes, love and jingles.
We are all doing our very best, and it ain’t over 'til the fat lady sings. And I ain’t planning no singing yet!

Willem & Coreene… Ok, upgrading to Jingles Ver. 4.02 - the heavy duty professional version of Jingles.
Keeping you both in my prayers. Get better Willem. We loff you. {{{{{Huggles}}}}}
My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely.
Willem, Glimmer and I are jingling for you!!
Now be a good boy and eat all that yucky paste right up - and be a gentleman about it too. It will make you feel better, promise!
Coreene, be sure to take care of yourself as well as your horse - sometimes we forget to do that when things like this come around.
Jingle, Jingle. Jingle, Jingle. Jingle, Jingle…

Jingling and sending good thoughts your way, Willem and Correene!
Thanks for the update. Don’t give up yet, we’re all pulling for you!
A happy face to show the positive thoughts: 
I passed the kitchen table this morning and picked up my curb chain for it’s morning jingle. Then I thought, no, that’s not enough, and slipped it into my pocket. It will stay with me till this crisis passes, as it did for Aiden.
Willem and Coreene, you are an inspiration to us all. We are all better people for the example you set of grace under unrelenting pressure. You will be in my thoughts constantly until this unpleasant time passes, and Willem is well again.
He’s not really a pony, and I’m really not “pony aged” either.
Ok, adding my jingles again for Willem
