The owner died more than a month ago. The son also abandoned her; we assume she was ready to give birth since the babies if they reach a month are many. She gave birth there and went a month without eating.
We don’t know how she survived, or how those two tiny soldiers survived. Caught on her mother’s breast, without a drop of milk and suffering from severe anemia, she was physically consumed by worms. Look how frantic she was when she was released, despite the fact that her infirmity makes it difficult for her to move.
Last night, we went looking for her. You can only image how bad the stench was all over her rotten flesh. She was withering to death.
We administered first aid, medicated, administered saline, sanitized, and removed any probable worms. She also let him use the mattress. She refused to eat or drink. We didn’t know if the larger insect had impacted her throat or perforated the jaw, stopping her from doing it.
She has additional tiny bugs on her gum, pear, hand, and hip, as well as a scab on her hip… Her situation is dreadful.We looked after babies who, thankfully, did not have bugs. They simply begin eating. We applied flea powder to them and dewormed them.
This story of survival and compassion reminds us of the power of kindness even in the face of unthinkable hardship.
Together we can make a difference nurturing life and hope where it is needed most.
Let us share this story and Inspire others to act with compassion for every living being deserves a chance at a better tomorrow.
Woman goes to say goodbye to gravely ill pregnant sheep – then finds miracle in the straw
Everyone who’s had the privilege of experiencing the miracle of birth knows that it can be messy and it doesn’t always follow a prescribed schedule.
Mixed into the excitement and joy, there’s always a twinge of anxiety in the air until it’s assured that the birth went well.
And that’s exactly how Amy Hill felt when her 10-year-old sheep Dotty was expecting lambs.
It’s not like there was a reason to think anything would go wrong—Dotty had given birth several times before and had always produced healthy offspring—but this time, everything would be different.
Sonwy River Farms in Nova Scotia, Canada raises animals without using genetically modified crops, and the animals are taken care of in a humane and ecologically friendly manner.
The farm has many animals, but Amy Hill has always held Dotty in special place in her heart, as she was Amy’s first female sheep.
