Default Paraplegic Foal: UPDATE..

North Carolina family working hard to save/rehab a Quarter Horse foal (born 3.17/07) that suffered debilitating viral spinal illness/damage.. Tremendous commitment involved with no certainty for a happy ending.

Provokes a discussion point...

While noble, is trying to save this foal the 'right thing to do' for the horse?
