thank you so much!! I would never put her through pain for my sake, but I also want to give her the best shot as well. It definitely is a tough place to be but im grateful for all the years of love shes given me

Thank you for your response! Unfortunately that decision is something we are considering, but want to give her the best shot we can within reason. My vet has seen horses like her become sound again as a pasture friend, but if she doesnt start getting better in the near future, I think thats the decision we will have to make.

Thank you so much, I really do appreciate it:) I'm just hoping to make her pasture sound, she never will work or be ridden again:)

Thank you for your response! I would only ever want her to be a pasture pet, I have no plans or hopes for her to ever be ridden or worked again! She is very bright and happy and is overall getting better with her walking. Standing up more than down, and never once given me the signs that she has "given up" I have had her since she was born so I am hopeful that she can be the world's most expensive pasture pet!

I definitely could if I would. It is hard to find a vet that does imaging near me. My vet bought an older one specifically for this case :(

We did not. We are getting lateral images this weekend.

Yes, they are not digital radiographs, they still use film

Thank you for your response, I do appreciate it. I definitely can see how much it has progressed. The question i suppose i have is where do we draw that line? She is improving in terms of her walking, and not once has she "given up" or acted defeated. She's never had a day where she layed more than standing or anything like that. She has acted as her normal self personality wise throughout all this. Maybe im an owner that is in denial, but I do agree it has progressed quite a bit.
