Kidznpupz sent a request for prayers for her daughter Meg's injured horse.
Please say some healing prayers for our Charlie. He was injured seriously, and we do not know what caused it. He somehow managed to cut his extensor tendon on his left front leg. The skin was cut like a flap. The vet was called and the wound was sutured and cleaned. Nobody seemed to know just what happened to him and that really bothered us. He has been moved to another boarding facility at this time.
While at his former boarding facility the wound completely reopened. The new vet (who we really respect because he takes care of all the horses at the Meadowlands and Yonkers Racetrack as well as the Big Apple Circus) said that he has only a 50% chance of recovering function in his leg and may not ever be able to be ridden again because he will drag his foot and "knuckle over" on it.
He is going to the Warwick Equine Hospital on Tuesday for surgery to clean out the wound and hopefully do some repair work on the tendon. After a couple of days of healing they are going to put a fiberglass cast on the leg to keep it immobile and he needs to be at the hospital for three weeks so they can keep an eye on the cast.
Please pray for his recovery. Even if things go well its going to take a long time. I will give everyone updates as we know anything. I know that FOB prayers really work. Please take just a moment to place Charlie's healing in your hearts and in your prayers
If you would like to take a moment and light a candle for him, here is the link to his candle page. Joanne and Meg thank you for all your healing prayers.

Much white light and healing prayers for Charlie. I so hope he has a successful and full recovery. These types if injuries take time to heal, and I pray that he has no further complications.
Our hearts and prayers are with you, Charlie, Meg and Joanne. We'll be waiting to hear how you all make out and praying that it will be good news at the hospital today. Love you -Cindy
I'm so sorry to hear about this injury to your horse. I'll be thinking of you, and him, and praying for his recovery.
Prayers are being said for Charlie, his family, and the vets. May the Lord Guide them and give them the knowledge that is needed in this recovery. God Bless all of you as you all go through this time! Peace be with all of you.
Bless his heart and I will say prayers for Charlie in hopes that he recovers fully. I am hopeing for a miracle so that he can run again the way he was meant to. What a shame that someone neglected him in not saying anything when it happened, someone knows but is to cowardly to confess to thier wrong doing or just saying anything. Charlie will recover and I hope we are informed of his progress, Bless all of you.
Hi, I was so sorry to hear about Charlie. I hope that everything turns out ok and he gets better.
I pray thet the lord heals him so that Charlie can run fast with his heart soaring if not on the fiels in greener pastures. I love horses and they love to run but horse racing puts them in such danger I just don't know how I feel about that but I send my prayes to any wounded animal that needs healing. Christina
