Deepest condolences on the loss of this gorgeous kid 😭😭

This post is incredibly difficult to write. To actually put this in to word's, is the realization that it really did happen.

On Thursday, my precious little man, Comanche started to colic. I did the usual, walked him, but continued to get worse. The vet came out around 4.45pm, he improved quite quickly, and was happy for a while. Having a small feed of hay as recommended by the vet, and drinking water, seeming happy. Around 9pm, he started looking uncomfortable again, but just uncomfortable. I never left his side all night.
I had the vet out again in the early hours of Friday morning. She said he needed surgery. I hooked the float on, loaded my son, and headed of around 5.30 am. I can't see very well in the dark and was exhausted. So it was a slow drive. Arrived at Maffra, he was put on the drip, had a scan. They said he needed surgery and they weren't able to do it there.
So I went to start my car to take him to Narre Warren, and wouldn't you believe it, my car was dead.
Had the RACV out to jump start me. Moved my car out of the way. Lucky, I have such an incredible, supportive family who absolutely rallied together to support me and do everything in our power to save our favourite little man. My sister dropped everything! And came to pick us up and high tail it to Narre Warren!

My amazing mum, met us there with food and drinks and to take my son home. Dallas had been such a good boy which I'm so grateful for.

Once at South Eastern, they scanned him and showed great concern. Things weren't looking good, but I wasn't giving up hope. Comanche went in for surgery, they told us to head home and they would contact us.

They did ring a couple of hours later. Said he had a huge blockage in his large intestines and his stomach was enlarged. They said to prepare myself because they were struggling to move the blockage. My reply was OK, but I'm still praying you can, still praying for Comanche. And I did.

Within half an hour I had another phone call. Unfortunately there weren't any options, but to put him to sleep. Such difficult words to say.

But that wasn't the end of the day...

Returned to my car around 8 pm in Maffra, wouldn't jump start. RACV out to jump start, which it did, but as soon as I put it in drive, it died. Tow truck now on its way.
Such a lovely man. He towed me, my 2 dogs, car loaded, and horse float behind the truck, home. Finally arrived home near midnight Friday night to actually try to process what had happened.

I'm still processing all of it. It doesn't feel real.

I know I tried everything in my power to save him. I was lucky enough to give him a big hug goodbye. It was a reasonably peaceful ending for him, considering.

I feel so grateful to my family to drop everything and be there for me emotionally and physically. We all adored Comanche so much. He truly was a part of the whole family.
I'm so grateful to my friends for such support. I truly am lucky to have such loving, caring people in my life.

I feel so lucky to have owned such a precious stallion who brought so much joy in to our lives. I will miss his beautiful face staring at me. He alway's looked like he was smiling at me.

It just makes his soon to come foals even more special.
Comanche will never be forgotten ❤️
