Wednesday, February 19, was a sad day here at TMS. After a month of intensive treatment for EPM we had to put Sidney down. He had slipped on some ice due to neurological issues with his hind, caused by the EPM, and just didn't have the strength to get back up. He was an awesome pony and the perfect match for Keiko's first eventing pal. It's always hard to make that final decision, but it was the right one. He lived a good life here at TMS and we didn't want him to suffer any more than necessary. He loved to run full out and we're sure his new pasture in the sky offers wide open spaces!
