I've been meaning to ask. How's Winnie? Is she rideable yet?

Mornin', Becky,

I'm not sure about Winnie, yet. I was finally able to let her out yesterday and put her in a round pen. She went berserko so I Ace'd her so she wouldn't mess up all that expensive work we did. When she slowed to a trot I could tell that she's not 100%. The vet said that if this one didn't work, he'd inject her again. If that doesn't work, we'd try another drug, I think. After that, we'll look seriously at a neurectomy. Right now, I could keep her as is but give her bute to ride and she'd be fine. With bute you really can't tell there's anything wrong with her and that's before the injection.

I've been reading about your possible stifle problem. I'd probably have the vet take a look at that.
