Sadly Faith died during the night
She had a chest infection for the last two days, despite antibiotic therapy she didn't make it!
My husband hardly left her side for the past two days. She definitely knew she was loved and cared for.
I'm heart broken over her. She was such a magnificent creature.
In her lifetime she had overcome encephalitis, a broken leg, and an attack by a donkey while she was pregnant and left her paralyzed for 6 weeks.
She did however recover, walk in the fields with her son and enjoy what little bit of summer we did have.
Faith was a such a special creature.
Mother to Rosie (who died at a week old), Ben & Gerry (who went as stud animals to an organisation called Bothar who send animals to Africa they live in Co. Dublin and their job is to get the goats in kid before they travel to Africa, along with their cousins John & Edward) and Marty who is now getting on for 5 months and still with us.
Rest in Peace Faith, you were one great lady!
Suzanne.
