Five Months Later

Druid has turned the corner!


November 2003

Three major things changed at one time for Druid. I treated him for ulcers. I started using oils and energy work, and the front of his hooves fell off.

I am not sure if only one change would have helped him or if it was the combination. I will never know, but thank goodness it worked.

The month of November was very good for Druid. He continued to do well from this point forward.

From July until this day, Druid had stayed in my barnyard and never strayed more than a few feet.

This day he not only left the barnyard, he scared me to death. I couldn't find him any where. He had meandered into the woods and was contentedly hanging out.

I cried from relief and joy!

Druid had turned the corner!
