Sorry but that's not going to happen.

We are a non-profit and really don't have any money for salaries. I wouldn't take it anyway because I don't need to worry about that. Everyone is a volunteer except for those that provide services such as the vet and the farrier.

I'll be speaking to her tomorrow. I really think it's the new board member who is to blame, but we'll discuss tomorrow. As far as safety around the horses is concerned, there's always a chance of getting hurt when you work with horses. I had a horse fall on me when I was younger and I've been...

No that definitely is not it. We sometimes receive horses that are difficult, and out of all our volunteers there are only 3 people that are permitted to handle them. That is our president, trainer and myself.

I retired at 65 and couldn't stand the thought of doing nothing or "travel" so I found a horse rescue that needed volunteers and after all these years I'm still there. I'm 83 and can clean a stall with the best of them. Our horses come from the race tracks when they are injured and can't run or...

I'm having issues with low blood pressure, dizziness and a strange feeling in my chest. I went to the er and the doctor told me I was dehydrated. I was not. I got an appointment with my cardio doctor and he prescribed tests that I couldn't get an appointment for one month. Here I sit wondering...
