But what I do know is that you are a wonderful sheep Mom. Even though we've never met, after all these years of blogging, of following on facebook, and here, and also being from Kentucky, I consider you a "blogging friend" which is why I wish I could say something to make you feel better; but the words that have preceded mine say it so much better than I can. So, I'll just cry along with you and keep you in my prayers that you find peace and comfort in knowing you are being thought of and many like me are sharing the loss of Early with you.

I am so, so sorry for what you are experiencing firsthand. Please be comforted in the knowledge that Early had the best mom ever and was a really happy and loved lamb! Although his time was short, it was spectacular!

You know last year, ...So sorry to hear this, Sara. You know last year, I lost two lambs suddenly, just like you are describing. One was the very biggest lamb, and one was the smallest. This happened in July, and they were born in May. They had been perfectly fine, and then I walked in the barn later that day, and there was a dead lamb (the first time it was the very biggest lamb). A couple of days later, same thing, but it was the littlest lamb, which had been a single and was just smaller because she was born later than the others. I also had vaccinated for clostridium, which I usually never do, but the vaccine was also for tetanus, which is why I used it. I talked to a vet, and she said that there are so many strains of this disease and it is possible that the vaccine did not protect against it. Also, she said it usually strikes the healthiest lambs. Very frustrating, and in your case, very, very heartbreaking. I am tremendously sorry for your loss. Farming is a very tough sport. farm buddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02746039869965536774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457557437300345355.post-91153458248991117472020-05-26T16:17:18.173-05:002020-05-26T16:17:18.173-05:00I am so very sorry.I am so very sorry.The Dancing Donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16274299120708749101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457557437300345355.post-39635369144736685752020-05-26T16:13:20.522-05:002020-05-26T16:13:20.522-05:00I have read these accounts from you too many times...I have read these accounts from you too many times.

We sense in you a kindred spirit. A spirit that can connect to nature and its creatures in a way others cannot understand. We see in you someone who is both blessed and, yes, cursed with "feeling too deeply." We know. We do too. With this ability, we will have experiences that are magical. . And also indescribable sadness. I too wish I lived near you. To just sit and be. Know that we are with you in spirit. That lil lamb lived more lifetimes and offered more joy than most people. That truly is a gift. Thank you, Sara.
