Poorly Donkey

This time last week we thought we had lost Maybe. She was more than poorly, suffering with colic, pneumonia, massive loss of weight and honestly unlikely to last the night. With the support of friend and equine vet Celia we have been nursing her, medicating her symptoms, blood tests, parafin tubes into her stomach, electrolytes, pain killers, antibiotics, steroids and antihistamines, feeding night and day and today she is looking more her healthy self. Breathing still not 100%, but may never be fully there. Feeling a big sigh of relief. 

She a special part of the Backhouse family.
