Life saving surgery on my horse Ellie.
Not quite
Unfortunately this project was not successful.

Ellie had an accident in the field which left her with a serious injury on her back leg. She has a bone chip that needs to be removed.

  • The first photo is after 5 weeks and it was healing well. The second photo photo is after 7 weeks of treatment and £2000 vet bills which discovered a bone chip near her joint. Insurance doesn't cover the surgery and the vet gave me an estimate of £5000. If Ellie doesn't have the surgery soon she will die. I have emptied my savings. We bought her 15 years ago as a 1 year old when my granddaughter Megan was born. Megan died when she was13 weeks old. Ellie is so important to us. Please help her.
