thanks to all of those who helped, Promise has arrived at Cantemerle....
Although not yet an ASHA horse, people in America have worked hard to raise the funds to send Promise to France where she can be helped by Helen to give her a quality of life she doesn't yet know is possible.

Hi everybody in the Care group.

Just in case I should be needed.... Joan, otherwise great minutes!!!
I amtoo far to actually help in "every days work" that Mambo requires, but as insignificant as I am in his life, I just wanted to tell him that I love him from the very first time I saw him at the vet clinic where I am working. I admire his fight for life and YOUR fight for him!
