Thank you! It took me a while to navigate, as the link went back to the website home page - probably having lots of hits. If anyone else has trouble, put Barbaro in the search box under the heading "Light a Candle."

There were 1,225 candles lit for him when I visited just now. (Note to others: If you get a page with all candles lit, which I did - and couldn't figure out how to light a new one - scroll down to the bottom of the page where it says "previous" and "next" to get a new page and find a candle that has gone out, so you can light it.)

Loved the story in the RMN, especially the part about a photo of Barbaro with all fours off the ground when winning the KDerby with no one behind him for 6-1/2 lengths - then him being hoisted in the sling with all fours off the ground.

Hope they understood that they just do that when working on his bandages and most of the time he is just in it for support, not lifting. I think of it more like Tiny Tim's crutch.

I want a pic of him dog-sitting, lol. He knows what to do when standing on hurting legs and feet gets to be too much! Bless his heart - his extraordinary heart.

Swing that sling, Bobby!
