Update and partial biopsy results for Lucky the rescued Belgian Draft Horse with an eye injury Ep.51
Episode 51
If you are new to our channel, On Friday March 17th, while scrolling through Facebook I came across a horse that was scheduled to ship on the next slaughter truck to Mexico. The reason this horse stood out to me was because he had suffered horrible abuse. His right eye was missing and he was never given medical attention as the kill pen photos showed his eye covered in dried blood. There was no way I was going to let this poor animal suffer further by going to a slaughter house! So, we rescued him!
On Tuesday, March 21st, Cory and I drove 6 hours to Kemp, TX to pick him and we drove him straight to the vets office to get the medical attention he needs. Since he was rescued on St. Patricks Day we decided to name him Lucky.
Our last video was of Cory and I picking him up and the start of Lucky's medical care. If you haven't seen the video I will put a link below. From his first appointment Dr. Amber suspected he might have cancer because of the way his eye felt. She did X-rays and a biopsy of his eye and a spot on the side of his head because it looked abnormal to her. On Friday we received a partial report of the biopsy results. This is an update on what was found in the report and our path moving forward with Lucky's treatment.

Thank you to everyone that has sent us gifts of Alfa Pro, we truly appreciate your support and can't thank you enough!
We have had questions asking if we have an Amazon wish list to help with supplies for the horses. Now that the foundation is up and running we will be putting together an Amazon wish list. The one item we always need is FEED! If you would like to send a gift/donation of feed (Alfa Pro, hay, etc) to the horses you can send that through our local feed store.
Ranchers Supply and HF&C have offered to help us with anyone wanting to send a gift of Alfa-Pro to the horses. When you call, tell them you are sending a gift to Fletcher Farms Amarillo and they will add the gifts to our account. Alfa Pro is $17.50 per 50lb. bag plus tax at Rancher Supply and $18.25 per bag at HF&C. WE go through about 2-1/2 bags per day to feed all the 8 horses. We also purchase hay and alfalfa from Ranchers Supply which is used to feed the horses and donkeys.
Thank you to all of our subscribers and followers for your support, for your kindness and generosity! We are grateful for everything and don't know what we would do without your support!
