Rose and Cruiser- March 26- March 28 2013
With a heavy heart I have to tell you all that both foals passed away today. In a way I expected it, but I always had hope that we could will them to live and be healthy.With the help of Dave and Shayla, they were cared for around the clock, and yesterday afternoon they both seemed to be doing well. Today, it was as if a flower had bloomed in all it's beauty yesterday and then faded and wilted today. They both were listless and it was obvious to me that they were losing their will to live.
So I will leave you with some photos from yesterday, Rose and Cruiser in all their short but sweet cuteness.

I am so sorry Shirley. Hug B
RIP Rose and Cruiser.
I'm so sorry, Shirley, Shayla, and Dave. :(
I am so very sorry. You all poured your hearts into those babies. My deepest condolences to you, Ted, and Shayla. And Gussie.
so sorry Shirley, if they could have made it at all they most certainly would have in your loving care.Love and hugs to you and all who were involved in the efforts to keep them going.Somewhere beyond the rainbow they are in the care of some of the great mares in their own heritage. Rest well little ones
They were just so small. I'm so sorry for Gussie and everyone who tried their best.
:(
Hugs to ((((Shirley))))
I know you & Shayla & Ted tried all you could - You gave Rose & Cruiser the best while they touched the earth - hugs to ((everyone)) - there for a brief moment I thought they would beat the odds -yes, they were a miracle even for the short time they were here; for them to even survive the birth is 1 out of 10,000...
praying for Gussie's health, and for Belle & baby to come, and that you all get the rest you need
(((Shirley)))
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that! I was really pulling for those two cuties. I hope you and Gussie take care of each other and help each other through this time.
What a sad, sad day. I thank all of you for helping these sweet twins try to overcome their challenges and for allowing us to witness your love of, and dedication to, the animals in your care. I find comfort in fernvalley's imagery of the place that Rose and Cruiser now call home. Sending hugs to all of you, including Gussie.
Oh Shirley, these pictures made me cry again. They were so joyful yesterday and just so great to be around. It's just so very, very sad.
I hope you get some rest tonight that is if Belle doesn't foal!). Very nice post in memory of the twins.((((Hugs)))
I'm really sorry to hear you lost the babies. How very sad.
I am so sorry - they had nothing but love and care in the short time they were with you - you gave them your all.
Very, very sorry. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing you did everything there is to do. I hope Gussie continues to do well and you also.
our hearts go out to you all. rest assured, they are in God's loving memory.
Oh that is so sad to hear, even if it is rare for twins to survive. I know you did all you could for them and that is all that can be done.
I'm really so sorry - you worked so hard. My heart goes out to you.
I'm so sorry. If there was any chance for them at all they definitely had it with you. My condolences to all of you.
Oh. I've been away too long and now am going backwards. sad to happy. Maybe I will prefer it that way. So precious...
I am so very sorry to hear this. You are all in my thoughts and prayers in this hard time.
So sorry for your loss. What cute babies. So sorry for Gussie.
Oh no.... I am so sorry to read this, its just heartbreaking.
I hope Gussie is doing OK.
Hugs to you, Dave, and Shayla.
I'm so sorry for you all. I hope Gussie doesn't grieve too much, poor mama. Rose and Cruiser were so sweet cuddled up together. I'm kind of glad they will continue to have each other for company at the bridge, even if it would have been so much nicer for you guys to have had at least one make it. xxx
I am so sorry. You gave them every chance in the world.

Oh, i'm so sorry as well for all of you. Give Gussie a big hug from me.
I haven't been on blogger for several days...so sorry to hear Gussie lost her beautiful babies :( life can be so unfair sometimes. How heartbreaking. I can tell by the pictures that your care, Dave, and Shayla gave the twins comfort & joy during their short but special lives. Hugs to you, and your beautiful Gussie girl. May you find comfort in each other.
So sorry for your loss. If love and care would just have been enough....
So sorry for your loss, I know we were all really hoping that they would make it. Poor Gussie, I'm sure she is sad too.
Glad that you have such wonderful friends that can help and be around when you need them the most!
{{{{{hugs}}}}}
I think it's all been said. If they were going to make it, it would have been from the great care you all bestowed upon them.
We are so sorry to hear that. They were beautiful little angels, and seeing them brought a smile to everyone's face. Our condolences to your family, and your mommy mare. God bless.
Oh, I am so, so sorry! I hoped and prayed they would beat the odds. Such a sad loss for all.
I am so sorry. Take some small comfort in the fact that you did all you could.
how sad:-( That would have been awesome if they had lived. I'm sure you did all you could. Hope Belle's foal lives!
I am so sorry, Shirley! They were beautiful foals. It must have been so hard to lose them, although I know that it was almost expected.
Oh no! I am so sorry! I just lived for the pictures you put on there, and I was so sad to find out what happened! Prayers for you and and hope that Gussie is doing well.

Oh no....I wasn't expected this news at all. I've been away from Blogger the last few days and decided to stop by to get a cute twin foal fix. How heartbreaking. I really thought they would survive.
I'm so sorry for yours and Gussie's loss :(
