She was born the wrong color, born with an umbilical hernia, and born with a heart murmur. We can't fix the heart murmur. However, we don't care what color she is. She's beautiful in our eyes. Now it's time to fix the hernia but we need your help.

We took Mayhem in to the Sanctuary in 2010 and gave her time to grow and be weaned. However, in 2011 we took in seven horses. Of those seven, five of them were either thin or emaciated (Bo, Dic, Savanna, Sahara, Sir Prize/Jett, Prince, and Flower). We depleted our funds bringing the emaciated horses back up to their correct weights so we couldn't get Mayhem's hernia fixed.

Then in 2012 and 2013 Mike, Garrett, and I all had major medical issues (and not to be over dramatic, these medical issues were near death incidents). So with all those medical issues, our funds were depleted and again Mayhem's surgery had to be placed on the back burner.

Now it's time Mayhem gets her surgery. We are asking for your help in collecting funds. With her heart murmur, I am figuring that we will have a few post-surgery vet visits to make sure that she is recovering and that there are no ill effects from the surgery (or from having to wait so long).

Can you help Mayhem?

The first two pictures are of Mayhem this fall. You can see in the first picture that the umbilical hernia.

 Mayhem is standing behind her momma, Rabbit. Mayhem was supposed to be a blue roan. She turned out identical to her mother.

The following pictures are of Mayhem and Rabbit the day after we brought them home to the Sanctuary. You can barely see the umbilical hernia on Mayhem. But you can definitely tell the straight and neglect that Rabbit went through. Rabbit has some medical issues of her own so we wanted to bring her into the Sanctuary and give her a retirement that she deserved. But she's a different story.
