Lacey Died

Thank you to all who had her in their prayers, but it just wasn't meant to be.
She passed away quietly last night, it appears she was not in any pain.

Thanks everyone. I am finally able to talk about her without breaking down. She was just so deep in my heart and I actually didn't know that it would hurt this bad to loose her. I am lucky to have this forum to talk about my feelings and be understood by other goat people. Thank you.
Her kids are doing much better now. They didn't get their strength until yesterday. They are now acting like day-old kids so I am hopeful that they are going to grow up to be healthy happy goats.
I am so thankful for this forum, with this we can all share our experiences and learn from others.
