I could walk in the barn and as soon as she heard my voice she would start hollering to be fed....we sold her as a yearling in Saratoga and thats the last time I put my hands on her... but this hurts.

what makes it worse IMO is that she was entered in the KEE november sale, and the people who own her mother were planning to buy her (at almost any price), she withdrew before ever hitting the sales grounds....
Paisjpq, I am so sorry for your loss....that story is just heartbreaking.
It's so easy to fall in love, especially after bonding like that in the first week.
