Moment of Silence for an Amazing Mare and her Amazing Human

I don't have very much to say today. I just finished reading Andrea's moving tribute to her mare, Gogo. I don't know if any of you have followed Andrea and Gogo's journey over the last few years. It has been a roller coaster ride with its ups and downs. Unfortunately, the ups have come more and more infrequently in the past few months.

It all culminated yesterday with Andrea's heartbreaking decision to put Gogo down. Her suspensory injury never healed properly and was resulting in a breakdown of her hind legs. Andrea's strength and ability to put her mare's needs above her own is so very inspiring.

Andrea, you may never read this but just know that you and Gogo have touched so many hearts, including mine. Hundreds of people you will likely never meet wept over the loss of that special, fiesty, beautiful mare. Rest in peace, Gogo.
