Oh Susie! Oh goats and sheepies! I wish I had something more eloquent and healing to say, but instead I will just say I’m so sorry, and send snorgly hugs.

mother nature can often be a b*tch.
hope you and everyone else at the farm are doing better after such an unbelievable ordeal.

Being a shepherd is not just hard physical work, but, as you know, it can be so mentally painful at times. Having had my share of ups and downs in my life as a shepherd, all I can say is…take a deep breath, cut yourself some slack and soldier on. Many people are wishing you peace of mind. Soon the joy will return.

So, so, sorry – sending my condolences. We went through a similar thing with cattle years and years ago ande dadness is overwhelming. I’m so glad you found the source. Things will get better – please hang in there.

One more person with no words to express how bad I feel for you and your farm family. I hope things get better soon for all of you and your animals.

Oh Susan, I’ve been thinking and thinking; trying to figure out what to say that might make it better. But the truth is, there are no words that can truly do that. I’ve actually cried over these losses…’our’ babies and mom. And I’ve never met them in real life so I can only imagine how hard this is for you and Patrick, Harry, Erin, Andie and Emily. My heart goes out to you but at the same time I have the utmost admiration for all you do. This loss would be great to anyone, but I know how well y’all care for and love your animals. The stress and exhaustion must be almost overwhelming so please take care of you…the caregivers.

I am so sorry for your losses. I know that they were a part of your family and the pain is great. Take care of yourself as it is clear that your running on empty right now. Rest and watch the little ones romp and jump. They will soothe your soul and bring back the joy, just as they have to so many of us. Please take care
