Sorry for not updating sooner, I have just been running on empty between two daily trips to the barn and his care and everything else in life that still has to be done. Gent is improving steadily and was actually feeling better enough last night to be a brat again, so that's good news. I won't know about whether his lameness is chronic or how much the internal structures will heal for a while yet but he is improving and able to use his leg more than before, which was none, so that's always a good thing. Thank you for the prayers, he and I really appreciate them.
