  Nice story, Barb. Thanks for writing it. It very poignantly 
demonstrates the level of caring and attention to detail that virtually 
all endurance riders exercise in the pursuit of our sport. And the 
agonizing that goes on as we try to figure out things gone wrong, 
whether on the endurance trail or some other place or circumstance in 
our horses' lives.
  What your story also reminds me of, is all the factors essentially 
out of our control that might inadvertently lead to a metabolic problem, 
a non-completion, and, if Jim had his way, the public humiliation and 
discouragement a conscientious rider could bear the full brunt of, 
despite their best efforts. Any volunteers to sit on that jury? Now 
taking applications for the judge's throne.......... Dr Q
