Thanks! We try hard and it's an ongoing and uncertain thing. Not like something you can give an antibiotic for or some other treatment that will "fix" it. There's so little information on this setback for Barbaro, but I hope his problem is along the lines of an abscess. Abscesses come with the laminitis territory and they are nasty and painful. The resect they did on his left back can be wrought with problems as the hoof grows back out. It is a delicate balancing act with the right back already being compromised. What a horse, though!
