UK Woman dies after farewell to horse

BBC: Woman dies after farewell to horse

Oh, dear me. It must be the dust from the hay bales in here that has me all choked up

IK, R?

Dammit! Now I’m all crying and the cat is looking at me like I’m a nut.

Ddamn this dust!

There must be some way to keep this dust from blowing all the way over here…

…or not.

My computer screen is malfunctioning, it’s getting all blurry.

Oh my. I hope she remembers to wait by the rainbow bridge. sniffle

Me too. Also notice the age of the mare- she is clearly old, but very well cared for.
Horses are both magical and so very mundane- but I’ve long thought they have very good memories, and recognize people and other animals they have known.

May these heartwarming pictures lighten grief.

Damn the dust!
I hope mine are waiting at the Bridge.

Never had a horse, but God, I miss my collie.

… said Timmy, at the bottom of a well.

After seeing the thread title, the first thing I thought of was Catherine the Great.

Damned murderous horses.

To me, the amazing thing about this story is that the hospital went along with it. Kudos for to them for making/ allowing it to happen.

Take the dust back! My cat is looking at me like I’m crazy!

Jackmanii, you have a dirty dirty mind ( I suspected as much ;)). And besides, that was a filthy rumor. Nice big healthy footmen, now, there’s possible :stuck_out_tongue:

I read the title as “Woman dies after failure to horse.” And I thought, “was she bucked off? Didn’t put a saddle on right?”, and the comments were more confusing.

So a horse is standing by an old woman’s deathbed, and the nurse walks in and says

why the long face?

Well, the teeth would drop its price a bit

Hello, funeral home? Yes, it’s lovely, but we ordered a hearse. H-e-a-r-s-e.
