I have had so many PM's, emails, text messages and even a phone call about the article I have written in I just wanted to say a public and heartfelt - THANK YOU. Your support at the times of crisis were very much appreciated and you were a tower of strength, especially Mandy who listened to me blubbing my heart out more than once.
The vet, physio and the rehab place all read it beforehand and everyone involved was more than happy to be named. The vet tells me that three horses have now received the IRAP treatment in the shoulder - so far Dennis has had the best results.
I will answer all of you individually, please don't be offended if it takes a day or two 
THANK YOU for being part of our journey...... its not over yet!!!

| The article was excellent Vera; so readable and it showed so clearly your complete devotion to Dennis. It's great to know such close relationships between humans and their horses exist. What patience you have both had! If anyone deserves things to come right it's you two. He's a beautiful horse and you must keep us all up to date on his progress. |

Vera, I would love to see a copy too. Would it be improper to put it here on lines? I am sure I speak for us all when I say that we are with you every inch of the way, the friends you know and the ones you dont too. If not, can you email me a copy too please - sandie@keith01.plus.com.
What you both have been through is remarkable and an example to us all of what love and devotion can achieve. Bless you Vera X

I've just read your article, Vera. I didn't know your full story and all I can say is Dennis is very lucky to have you.
Good luck for the future - I hope it's a long & happy one |

| It is a fantastic article and a very inspiring story. Dennis (love that name!) is stunning and sounds such an amazing character - not many horses would have kept their sense of humour. Well done Vera and Dennis - I don't know either of you personally but I admire you both. |

| Excellent article I haven't had a chance to read my mag properly yet but went straight to Dennis and enjoyed reading it. He is such a lovely boy and so lucky to have such a caring owner. |
