Thanks everyone for your kind ans supportive thoughts. We share the same anxietys no matter where we are. It is great to have a group who support each other. I just realized that We were together for half my life! I feel so blessed. I'm not going anywhere. I have a boarding stable and we board another cushings horse here that I am giving TLC to. I also have a mission to prevent IR in all the ponys here and spot cushings BEFORE the laminitis. These horses really are a lot of extra work. I have done it as a labor of love so far but I would guess that a good boarding stable owner could be gently encouraged to pitch in by offering to pay for the extra labor.
