Windchill's Guestbook

a candle blown out way too soon
Your thoughts, prayers and well wishes are all printed out and kept in the barn with Windchill so don't think for a moment that you didn't make a different in the life of a quiet hero.. Thank you all so much for caring enough to write and call, as well as those who have sent donations to help with the cost of his care - you are all as much as part of Windchill's life  and story as we are and we are all very grateful. This guest book is part of the legacy Windchill leaves behind and will be preserved in his memory.

To Windchill, his friends and his caregivers: I have been closely following your struggles and this ordeal all week. As you now know, people care deeply about Windchill and about your efforts to preserve his life. I have been profoundly touched by his courage and your determination to give him a chance at the life he should have known from the start. I am a breeder, exhibitor and fancier of miniature Dachshunds. Through my extensive travels to various events and membership in both state and national breed clubs, I know all too well, the suffering and injustice that humans inflict on our precious animals. Three of the seven Dachshunds that live with me came by way of rescue from their previous homes and owners. I am now blessed with healthy, happy dogs and cannot begin to imagine the depth of your despair at finding Windchill under those horrible circumstances. I sent a $200.00 donation to Equine Allies on Friday for Windchill and will be glad to send more if his expenses are outstripping what has been collected. I cannot imagine all his needs but understand that they will be significant. I do not pretend to know anything about horses but am willing to help with anything that you might need. I am a pharmacist during the day at SMDC but can certainly offer help in the off hours. I know I am a complete stranger to you but my offer is sincere. Your ongoing account of your efforts and Windchill's condition and progress on your website are so meaningful to those who are concerned. It must be extremely difficult to keep that information current, given the tremendous workload you are carrying. I will continue to keep Windchill in my thoughts and hope that you can find the strength to continue to support him in his battle for his life. Kind Regards, Kathy Johnson 218-626-2090

Precious little Windchill: You have touched so many lives with your courage and determination to live. Just like our Precious Barbaro, you have brought a band of people together that have "hearts of gold"....hearts that love all animals and will do anything and everything to help those that cannot speak for themselves. I will continue to light candles and say prayers for you 24/7. May you feel the love and healing light that your candles carry to you from those of use that "get it". I started this candle group for you on our Alex Brown Racing Forum...I hope other will visit to send more healing light and prayers your way.

It goes to the tune of the 60s song "Windy" by the Association: Who's standing up, defying all odds now Who's soaking up the hugs and the love Who's cheering up a nation of horse folk Everyone knows it's Windchill And Windchill has sparkly eyes That shine as he tries and tries And Windchill has will to thrive He's quite a guy.... Who's gonna run and play in a pasture Frolicking merrily soon someday Who is the colt that legends are made of Everyone knows it's Windchill! Hugs from the Maricle family Bruno MN

You don't have to respond - just know that us horse lovers here in Tennessee are keeping up with what is going on up there. Thank you so much for the steady updates and pictures on the website. I guess my biggest question is if the owner is going to pursue her rights to ownership -- I'm gathering she hasn't come to visit yet. If it was me I'd be too ashamed to show my face anywhere around if I hadn't been there by then - Keep the faith and I'm glad to hear you all are accepting help as it is offered. You can't do it alone.

I am sooooo glad you are able to get up, if only a little bit every day. Every day you will staying up a little bit longer and you will be getting stronger and stronger. So glad you have those mares and that wonderful dog and cat to keep you company - in addition to the wonderful people.

As a vet tech, I know first hand the struggles and frustrations a person faces when dealing with a acutely injured animal. Every step forward seems like it's followed with three steps back, but eventually those forward steps turn into leaps and before long, Windchill will be racing through the fields acting like all of this is simply a bad dream. Jeff, you might not call yourself a hero, or even see yourself that way, but to those of us watching this story from a distance, you and those who are giving up home, comfort and warmth to take care of little Windchill, you absolutely are. It would have been so much easier and less heartbreaking for you to ignore the little guy or convince yourself it wasn't your problem, but you didn't...you stepped up and did the right thing, and that, in my opinion, is something that isn't done often enough these days. I know 'thank you' isn't enough to express my gratitude for how you're taking care of Windchill, but until they invent a bigger word, thank you will have to do. Good luck and God bless you and all the folks who are working towards helping this amazing little guy get his life back.

You are a remarbable little one - and so very fortunate to have found the other half of the human equation which values animals and will go the distance to make up for the other half. I know what it is to fight for a life and the incredible reward it is when you see someone who most definitely should not have made it at all at least get a fighting chance. Many many thanks to all of your "caretakers" as they haven taken care with you.

Windchill - The news of your standing brought me to my knees to say thank you for answered prayers. I have been captivated by your story - horrified by the thought of your solitary and desperate cries across the frigid pasture, grateful for those working tirelessly to give you a second chance, and amazed at your will to live. In your short life you have seen both the best and worst of mankind, first through neglect beyond comprehension, and now through round the clock love, nurturing and compassion. Please know that you will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. May your body soon become as strong as your spirit and may you never know cold, hunger or loneliness again. To all those who have been caring for Windchill, a heartfelt thanks. If there is anything you need beyond donations and prayers, please ask.

Windchill, you remind me of a little guy who came in to my life 5 years ago. He was frostbitten and very sick. He's black, like you! Well, I loved him and cleaned his nasty little nose and kept him in a warm stall with deep shavings. I sang to him and talked to him and sat with him in his stall. After 4 days he was looking good and feeling good and he grew up to be a very handsome and smart boy! He's 16.2 now and weighs 1600 lbs. The sweetest being on earth. He's happy and full of life and knows that his Mom saved him. He thanks me every day. I'm saying prayers for you, Windchill, and I know that God has angels all around you to keep you safe and give you the strength to keep trying. With each day you will get stronger and stronger. Soon, you'll be kicking up your heals as you trot with your tail in the air! I love you, sweet boy! I'm sending many angel kisses your way. Faye in SC

To Jeff Tucker and Windchill’s wonderful caregivers: There’s a story about an old man on a starfish-littered beach, flinging one starfish after another back into the ocean. A young man walks by and scoffs, “Why even bother? There are too many for you to make a difference.” The old man flings another starfish into the water and says, “Made a difference to that one.” The number of starfish on the beach may rival the number of horses who are left to forage for themselves because of farm foreclosures, lack of hay, or simple neglect. But you made a difference to one of them, Windchill. Thank you for saving this little star and for being such kind, compassionate people.

hey little buddy: I know that you are going to be OK and grow up to be the biggest horse on this farm. God told me this. He is this really cool guy in the sky that supervises the earth and helps the good people help the animals. When you were resting your big old horse head on my shoulder yesterday I knew there was no other place on earth I was supposed to be except right there with you to hold up my friend Windchill. I'll come back again whenever I can. I've been running faster because I have a horse in my spirit now and my miles are for you my buddy, pretty soon you will be running your own miles. It is a truly extraordinary experience to be your friend. I love you and pray hard for you always. your aunt suzy. uncle archie loves you too.

Best wishes Windchill and the crew at Raindance Farms! When I was in middle school my wish came true to own a horse, but I not only received one horse but two! Our family had rescued two of nine horses near our home that were severly neglected. My mare and gelding went on to be wonderful companions to all that knew them. Their vet was also Jamie Meagher, who I still think very highly of. Keep up the great work! The world needs more people like the crew at Raindance Farms.

Shortly after I heard about Windchill's story I wrote a poem and sent it to Kathi Davis. Kathi sent it on to other concerned horse people who then printed it with the idea of posting it in local feed stores, vet offices, etc. to generate interest and donations for Windchill's care. I thought that this would be another good avenue to reach even more people to keep the movement going forward. So please print this poem, post it where it will generate the most interest and feel free to email it to those you think would be interested. The Wind's Chill The wind is cold blowing across the snow I turn; head down, so that it is my tail that takes its blow I am cold and I am hungry, why don't the humans know I need food and I need shelter before my time runs out Or angels will soon come for me of this I have no doubt I'm just a baby horse, no voice nor any clout The darkness is descending drawing closer, closer still I no longer have the strength or the desire to fight the chill I lay upon the snow growing weaker; no purpose to fulfill Why is it that they leave me here, cold, alone to die Why is it that the humans do not hear my silent cry Busy with their human stuff, they just simply pass me by I did not choose the cold pasture where I was left to die You said you'd love me always but it was just a pack of lies You left me in the snow bank ignoring my weakened cries But God alone has seen my lonely, painful plight and sends his guardian angels to do battle in my fight They struggle with the elements as I keep them in my sight Held in their arms I am lifted and gently carried away to a place of warmth and love, where other horses play Where if I'm very lucky, a place I'll get to stay Even as I'm growing stronger, my fate is not yet known I no longer fear to face it; as I'm not facing it on my own I have gifts of love and kindness that to me you've shown Do not ever forget me, no matter how long that I am here There are others out there dying, alone they face the fear No one to hold or comfort them, no one to shed a tear This farm is called safe haven, my haven it has become Even if I lose my life, God's will, it must be done Guardians angels all of you, from heaven you did come Katie Allen Dedicated to the efforts of Kathi Davis and Jeff Tucker, Safe Haven Farm / Raindance Farm for the rescue and care of "Wind Chill", age 9 months.

We are so excited to learn that WindChill is making such wonderful progress. I've shared the story with my 5 and 7 year old children which has really touched us all. They asked about him right away this morning when they woke up and I will be so happy to report the good news back to them. I commend you for taking the initiative and responsibility to help in this situation when his owner did not. Your act of kindness has prompted others to get involved...it seems the "pay it forward" mentality is in full swing. The first thing I do each morning is check your website for an update and I appreciate you taking the time to do this knowing full well you are probably exhausted. While our family has no experience working with horses (just our beloved dog!), we are animal lovers. I'm sure you have had many visitors and if visiting is still an option, I know my kids would love to take a peek at the horse that has captured the hearts of many. Thank you for all you have done and continue to do!

Sunday morning I skipped church and spent it with Windchill. I sat alone with him on a hay bale, his lovely, loving head in my lap. I took off my gloves, and laid my hands on his thin little body and we prayed. I asked God to send His healing energy into this sweet, forgiving little horse. I seriously felt the huge energy of His Spirit flow through my body, out of my hands, and into Windchill. I now know it was coming from all of your prayers. I am only a bit player in all of this: the heros are those people putting in many hours a day with Windchill. But he has touched me in places that needed work, humbling me with my ridiculous concerns. I watch him quietly and patiently submit to the ministerings of his caregivers, and so determinedly try to be a real horse again. Thank you, Jeff and Kathi, for letting me share Windchill. And thank you, my husband Gary, for doing the "real stuff" to help. Windchill's leaves me without words, something many people have tried to do for a lot of years.

I am so, so proud of all of you for valuing Windchill's life so much! It is so cool, and I wish I was a part of this story. It would make me cry to see his life championed, I am sure. Thank God you were all stubborn enough to say, "He will not die - we will not put him down. We will preserve his life." Blessings to you all! Our Father looks down on you and says, "Well done, good and faithful servant." Warmly, Laurie Johnson

When I first saw the article about Windchill, my heart just sank . . . I could only think of Barbaro and how attached I became to an animal I had never met. I instantly said a prayer in hopes that Windchill could be the one to pull through and beat the odds of his initial diagnosis. I once had a beagle that was caught in a trap in zub zero temps for several days. She had disappeared, we looked all over and who ever had the traps set, obviously wasn't checking them like they were supposed to or she would have been released within a day. She unfortunately had two feet (opposite front/back) frozen completely solid and after a valiant fight for 10 days, ended up losing any circulation we had hoped would come back and had to be put to sleep. I was so thankful for the vet that was willing to try what she could, the rest was in God's hands. It sounds like if anyone can beat the odds, it will be Windchill with his fight and determination. I laughed outloud when I saw that once he was up, he wasn't going to lay back down and slept standing up! What a trooper! Let's all continue to give our support through prayer and donations of time and money. Thank you for keeping us updated through this site, I am checking it daily in hopes I will only be reading more positive news! God Bless everyone involved!

Yesterday you rested (earlier in the pm), and I'm sorry I missed your arising in the evening. Way to go!! It certainly felt like you were going to tell everyone it was not going "to take a week". You were saving your energy and building your determination yesterday for the grand event last night. What an amazing creature you are! As are your rescuers! Thank you Jeff and Kathy and the other who were there that night. And Kathi, I will be taking the mini-blanket back to Dan's F.B. Sat. as that is the closest time I am not working. Now that Windchill is up do you have a sense of what size he needs - 62 0r 64 like we discussed? It appears he has something for now but we all expect him to be growing, and maybe changing sizes almost weekly. I also have a supply from my own little horse herds, so let me know (people say I have my own little tack shop with just about anything a horse could ever need). Anyway let me know if their are needs here. I'll be bringing out more horse people with me on Sat. I bid you all, and Windchill warmth, rest and recovery. Betsy Molstad

WOW. What a wonderful story, well the survivor part, not the part that got Windchil into this situation. What you are doing for this guy is so great! It is great to see there are people, and it sounds like a lot that are chipping in and taking care of this little guy. I am sure you have vets and lots of people with experience helping you but if you have not given him any probiotics you should consider it. Check out this product at www.equerrys.com. It is AWESOME and will give him a jump start to get going again. You can give him the paste. Keep up the good work and I will be praying for you, Windchill and everyone helping out. God Bless You.

God bless you all. I have shared all of my life with a variety of animals, and so know the love that they can give. It was with the knowledge of death and loss that I first read "Windchill"'s story. I tried to insulate myself from the tragedy with the consoling thought that "at least he will not die alone". Now, to read of his daily success, and the perseverance of strangers... it makes me sob with relief! Thank God for all of you, and thank God for Windchill too.

Last night at midnight I was out with my horses. I was making sure if everything was o.k. since it is supposed to turn very cold again. I wanted to cry thinking of you windchill. My heart breaks when I think of how you were crying for help and you almost died without being heard. Thank god someone heard. I make sure the water in the heated trough stays warm. I give grain for extra warmth. They not only have a 3 sided shelter, they also have many trees. If I could have taken them in when it was bitter cold, I would have. I live a few miles from Raindance Farms, so I know how cold that weekend was. I truely hope you don't have to go back to your original owner. I hope the Tuckers keep you. I was unable to volunteer due to an operation I had, but I prayed for everyone involved. The rest of this message is for all who reads this site. I spent 2 years trying to get horses away from some one who was neglecting them. They never took the horses from this person, but she was made to move them to hopefully a better area. I found out from a deputy in douglas county that it is hard to get animals away from neglectful owners. We as citizen's need to take a stand and say no more. I once had 6 dogs due to abandonment. God bless all who have volunteered with windchill and all who stand up for all neglected and abused animals.

Bless everyone who saved Windchill. Jeff, you are a wonderful person. I had a Walker (sire was a Walker, dam was a QH/Morgan) for 32 years. I bought him in 1966 when he was 4 months old and he died in 1998. The most enjoyable, faithful and beautfil horse I have ever owned. He was 15 and a half hands and bright blood bay in color. I also had a classic App Mare, bang tail and very sparse mane, a great granddaughter of Joker B., App foundation sire. My mare died in 2004 at the age of 26. Raised 3 fine sons out of her, 2 by a registered QH and one by a registered App. But enough about my equines, but I do like to talk about them. I hope Windchill keeps on the road to complete recovery, he does seem to be doing very well. I will be waiting to hear if any charges will be brought against the owner or boarder of the colt. Thanks to you, Jeff, and to all the others who have helped in his rescue and recovery. Marie

Windchill...I know you have good chances as in 1961, I found a 6 month old filly that was frozen in the snow, as you were. The only difference being that she was infested with blood worms. My Vet, gave her a very slight chance of making it, but I made her a "stall" in my recreation room and with weeks of rehab, medication, good food and LOTS of TLC, she came out fine, with no lasting effects. The amazing thing is, she looked a lot like you. When I saw you, I immediately thought of her. We named her Lucky Chance. Good luck to you little guy and I will be checking back to read future reports of your increasing good health.

I cry and get so angry. I know he is good hands now and getting loving care. We have a cabin in upper Michigan and if not too far maybe I'll make a trip to see Windchill this summer.Thank you all so much.......Pam

Hang in the little buddy -"Wind Chill" Sounds like you have great care going for you. We're sending a check today, to help with your care. We love horses, we have 2 Qtr. horses and when we heard that someone could leave you out in the cold like that, we just couldn't understand and wanted to help. My horses, in the east part of San Diego, CA, have a barn they can come and go and I put a rain blanket on them, because I was worried it was cold and rainy here, and it's 45 degrees! It's not fair, you have to go through this, people can be horrible to animals. But it sounds like you have lots of good people there for you. Please do whatever you can to save this precious colt.

Dearest Wind Chill, I have already learned, along with your 'daddy', that I must learn to spell your name correctly...see, I spelled it the right way. Now to get down to business. You are in my prayers every moment of each day and night. You've had a tough beginning to your life...but now the world knows about you! And with The Lord's help, and Jeff and Kathi and all of the loving and caring folks tending to you in your community - the world continues to wonder about you and what you might be doing each momemt of the day. We would take a minute-by-minute update if we could (and you would never get any rest)! Many of us more-or-less 2 legged creatures would not know about you had Barbaro, a wonderful horse that lives in heaven now, not brought us together while he was sick a little over a year ago. He lives in a beautiful home now called heaven, but I don't think he thinks it time for you to be living with him yet. I think he thinks your time right now should be spent on earth with the people you have come to know as loving you so much. While the whole world cheers you on---you must never give up. You have a hard road ahead of you, but God-willing, and with so many 2 and 4 legged creatures helping you...each day you are with us makes you more of a miracle. We know you are smart and very willing to work with your frens there at the 'Farm'. Keep up the good work and let your caretakers guide you. The Lord is working through them so that you may live a wonderful life---and you have so many fans from so many places supporting you every step of the way. God bless you dear little one. Try to move when you can so that your body is nourished with blood and begins to develop strength and muscles again. I know...it is sooooo cold. But, the hearts of everyone around you are warm. Soak in that warmth and take in all that love and just go for it; do your very best. And, you know Wind Chill, I know you have been and are already giving your chance at life your all. You are a very brave boy with much determination. God bless Jeff and Kathi and all those frens who are so willing to give you everything they can to care for you. You are so loved now-the awful people that left you in such a bad way should be punished by the proper authorities. But, forget them now. Be positive. You cried out for help in your last moments of life and some special people heard your call. Let all of us who have fallen in love with you, and our God, lift you up. Take one day at at time and let us pray for you Wind Chill. No matter what, know you are one of God's very, very special creatures. And, there are some very special folks surrounding you that will take care of you forever. When the summer comes and the weather is hot, we will all be able to smile as we call out your name, 'Wind Chill'! And those spectacular days will be here before you know it. Stay bright, special boy...and keep on munchin'. We all have faith in you. And if someone needs some kind of help there or just wants to chat...let them know to contact me. I come from Iowa, and that is pretty close to where you live. (My family had many horses years ago as I lived in a family-run hotel and the horses helped people move around from place to place. Those horses were loved dearly.) And I do know how 'pretty' COLD the winters can be in the midwest. But, like I said, the spring and the summer will come...but first, we have to make an effort for 'today'!!! With heartfelt wishes and the best of luck and many prayers for all of you- Love, Candice GET WELL, WIND CHILL!!!

Hi, I wish I could do more, but all I can do is send prayers and a big Thank You for everyone taking care of one of God's creatures. I wish people would use common sense and realize if they cannot take care of something they should sell it or give it away. I wish their was a way to put some controll on the back yard breading.

Dear Jeff/Kathi and frens: Jeff, you did a fine job on FOX. I understand all of you must be exhausted yet worrying every moment about that little 'kid'. It is obvious to all how caring you are and that you are giving 100% for Wind Chill. I think he is giving his all too. The rest is up to you know who! I tend to read and pray more than post and am an avid fan of Barbaro and the causes developed by him and his wonderful and steadfast group. Work keeps me from being as involved as I would like to be but I will have my day. Meanwhile, prayer and the power of strong thought is my greatest offering. My husband and I have tended to the very sick (both 2 and 4 legged creatures...sometimes there really is not much difference!). Some have been at the end of their lives and some at the beginning of their lives. Quality (time and care) is of the essence, and we were victorious in some cases and sometimes we could just offer support...because in the end, our God seems to have his own agenda. But, you do worry, minute by minute, and you just want to control everything to make all be right. We were granted one victory with a little boy that happened to also be a cat...and he was given a 0% chance to live. He was our love of a lifetime and he spoiled us like on one ever could (probably) again. He was a very special gift. His name was Puffy and he could fill a book with stories relating to his life. So, I say, 'go for it' - and keep up the good work. You have many friends supporting you that know you are giving erverything you can to save a wonderful life. And, Wind Chill knows it too. Hope you find more 'space' - I am sure you should be able to. You have found yourself the center of attention...good caring folk with a deep cause and that little boy, such a looker and so brave - you'll continue to be 'hit' with many messages I am sure. Would love to hear from you, but, do not worry, what is important is that you get rest when you can and that you remain healthy and well and sane as you care for your dear Wind Chill. Best always, Candice

Dear Windchill, Litttle buddy, last summer our little dog, Sassie, was very old and sick. She was blind, deaf and could hardly get around. My daughter came by to see her and she told Sassie that she made her heart hurt. A few days later Sassie's little body gave out and she went to play in Heaven. My heart quit hurting for her and I was happy that she wasn't in pain and suffering anymore. After seeing your story on Fox I want to tell you that my heart hurt for you at first but now it feels wonderful. I know you are going to make it and grow up to be a great horse and a joy to be around! Have a wonderful life and a happy heart! Stan Franklin

To Wind Chill, What a strong spirit you must be... to not only hold on long enough in that cold and windy pasture for someone to come to your aid, but also to trust humans again after having been so badly neglected. But these folks, these are the ones who do care, the good people worthy of your trust and love. And to all of you at Raindance Farms working so hard to keep Wind Chill alive and help him recover from the atrocious experience of hunger, thirst, neglect and cold: you guys and gals are the true heroes of this world, fighting for those who cannot speak for themselves or help themselves. Keep up the good fight, that foal appreciates every bit of your efforts. And don't forget that time spent with animals is added to your life :-) Many good wishes from the tropics to all involved , especially Wind Chill - how I wish I could send you up some heat...

Hey, I saw you on Fox & went right to my 'puter to check on Wind Chill. You did great on TV by the way. I'm still worried about Wind Chill internally... I just remember hearing that sometimes when people/animals are rescue from freezing water/drowning that they must be "thawed" from the inside out I think? 'Course this probably isn't the same since he wasn't under water. I'm sure all that's been addressed & it seems it's been long enough now since he was rescued. I'll probably worry till he's running! If you think you were nervous on tv you should try being stuck in a dishwasher in front of a couple million people LOL like I was on the pilot of Amer. Fun. Home Videos. I love reading your posts and I'm very glad someone like you was there for Wind Chill, I just wish the same was true in the cases of sooo many other horses/other animals who are neglected and abused every day. I'm all about animal rights/welfare do rescue myself and am too familiar with heartbreak, Wind Chill already has a happy ending because "he knows he's loved..." In case there is a God, I'll pray for you all... I certainly argue with Him enough, I'm afraid the abject cruelty I see by people of all faiths & no faith has caused me to pretty much forsake my own Christian faith. I think I've "back-slidden" to far to find my way back, but I do wish you everything fine in this world. And thank you for Wind Chill, human decency may not be as rare as I thought, at least he'll never end up in the back of a truck headed to a slaughter house in Mexico. Hang in there, you're doing a good thing. P.S. Oh, is there a heater of any type in the barn? If you thought one would help I'm sure the donations would come in, and it may be something that would really help him. They have a lot of very safe ones that are used in a lot of rescue shelters. If you even mentioned it a company would probably donate a heater... just a suggestion, it's about 10degrees here but it sounds colder by you. Helen Wholf

Windchill, My husband, 3 yr old daughter and I moved to Duluth from Kansas City, Missouri a year ago and we are avid horse people. My husband's parents own 5 Morgan horses and we all ride and love them. They are more pets than anything, but that's OK. When I saw your story it made me cry - how dare people be cruel and leave you outside. These winters are so bitter and not fit for anyone - let alone a young horse - to be outside. You are a true inspiration and a fighter - I can see it in your eyes. The people that are caring for you are angels and I do believe everything happens for a reason. You were meant to be with these people. We are saying prayers for you and thinking about you. Please tell your angels that if you need anything, that they should call me at 218-355-0780 and we'll do what we can to help. Much love and strength to you! Lisa, Darren & Emily Bartlett

Windchill, watching your progress with much excitement. What a family you have moved into! Having spent many a day/night with my horses over the years I know firsthand how tired your handlers are, but also know how dedicated they are.You have come a long way since these angels found you, and as the days/nights creep by you are slowly gaining strength.You must be so proud of your staff, I know I would be.Humans find strength when they don't think they have any left, and they can sometimes do without sleep for long periods of time.My own Appaloosa lived to be 33 years and 3 months of age, and in his last years I sometimes slept in his feed bin.I certainly was glad to wake up when he would start pushing around for food, which ment ,yep, he'd made it thru another night. My prayers for you, and your handlers are on their way!

I just want to say thank you to all those who rescue and volunteer and rush to help abandoned, neglected, and abused animals. I have seen so many people abuse their animals that it really lifts the spirits when you hear of someone working to save these animals. Almost all of my animals have been from abandonment or abusive homes.I have watched animals be starved near death and beaten and the authorities do nothing. PLEASE for the sake of these animals, contact your DAs, sherriffs' depts, humane societies and tell them this is enough. These animals are some of the best friends you could even imagine to have.

I was heartsick when I heard about Wind Chill. I grew up with horses and had a little mare that was half Appaloosa. Thank you so much for being the caring wonderful people you are. I'm praying for Wind Chill and for you. Give him another kiss on his little soft nose for me.

Wind Chill last night I read through all the get well messages that people have sent to you. Do you realize that you have messages from as far away as Hawaii, the Caribbean, and Germany? Your story has touched everyone. The FOX story was excellent, Jeff. You were definitely able to get Wind Chill's story out there. All of us at KAP Farms in Poplar are praying for you and your new family. Our burros, Earmuffs and Festice, even send you a "eeeyaheeeyah". We told all our animals about Wind Chill and there even is a picture of you up in the barn standing proud. We all hope that you are getting better every day and enjoy the updates on the website. Green grass will be under your hooves in no time. We love you Wind Chill. Katie & Keith and the rest of the 4 hooved animals(Earmuffs, Festice, Clover, Samy, Dolly, Fern, Rex, Sage, Simon, Rodney, Benny, Maple, Dexter, and our newest addition, LUNA, born on the night of the lunar eclipse 2/20/08)

May God be with you Wind Chill. You have deeply touched my heart. I have been around horses all my life except for the past 10 years. I have been wanting another one and hope to get one this summer. My sister has tennessee walkers and I have been wanting a walkaloosa like you. You see, I had an appaloosa when I was younger and him and I were best of friends. There wasn't anything that horse wouldn't do for me. I ended up having to put him down because a hunter shot him. Well, so much for me. You my little friend are in my prayers. What I would give to have a little one like you. I am sorry that some people have to be so cruel. I do hope that justice comes out of this and that you make a full recovery (which sounds like you are heading that way)and grow to be a beautiful horse. I have sit here and cried alot of tears for you and said alot of prayers. You keep fighting! and never give up. Sounds like you are getting great care. You have alot of people that love you.

I wish I could put into words the feelings that I am overcome with when I think of your streangth and courage to pull through these times. Well I feel really silly talking to a horse through a computer that I'm sure neither of us understand and I'm sure you can't read the little letters on that screen but if someone there will read these words to you I feel sure you will know just what I am talking about. I hope to meet you in person someday but until then know that I love you as big as the sky and you are in my thoughts and prayers. Oh by the way let that jerk that left you out in the cold all alone know that what comes around goes around and his will be coming. God Bless You, Johnny Rasmussen

I will always pull quietly for you from the corner of the barn & am looking forward to the day when you can throw Walker's plastic milk bottle for him - or at least play keep-away as a payback for all those licks. Keep up the good work for us when we have to hoist you each night. It'll work out in the end. Tucker & Emma, our dogs, really love your smell and are pulling for you too. You're a great little horse. I see you growing into a great big horse.

Is it any wonder that God sent Kathi and Jeff to rescue Wind Chill? I recently heard a dying man say that the most important parts of receiving forgiveness are admitting the mistake, trying to make it right, and not doing it any more. I believe that Wind Chill's former owner has done those things. God bless you Jeff and Kathi, for your loving, forgiving spirits, and Gary and I join you in this also. Helping Windchill has allowed us to meet some of the finest human and equine beings I could imagine, for which we will always be grateful. I wish you all could meet "our" litte boy, Windchill. I've always been a "dog" person (used to show them, etc.), and find the quiet spirit and wisdom in the trusting brown eyes of Wind Chill to be beyond words. I'm honored to be part of this. Thank you all for joining me.

When I heard this story while driving and listening to Fox News a few days ago, I nearly went off the road because of tears blinding my eyes. I am a horse lover. I had the joy and privilege of owning a horse when I was child, a wonderful Morgan/Shetland mix named Cimarron. He was my joy. I’ve been horse-crazy all my life. Wind Chill’s story tore my heart out. I’m thankful for Jeff Tucker, the people at Raindance Farm and all those who dropped everything to help this little colt come along and are still by his side. Horses are our companions and helpers. I haven’t heard the story of our Wind Chill’s owners came to abandon him in such frigid, raw conditions, but I hope they pay a severe penalty such as jail time and a fine. I’m pulling for Wind Chill. I wish I could be there to give him bits of apple and carrots, but I’m sure there are plenty of people there to spoil him along. Thank you Mr. Tucker for giving Wind Chill a loving and nurturing home.

I am checking in for my daily update on Wind Chill. I have owned horses most of my life and have just come back from my barn where I met the farrier and had my horses shoes reset. I was thinking of how I take care of my horses and thinking of some of the neglected horses I see in fields and wonder why the people that own them won't take better care of them. I now wake up every morning and know there is one lucky little survivor of neglect named Wind Chill. I hope there will be many more positive stories like his in the future. Thanks again to everyone involved in his rescue and loving care. "A horse, A horse, My kingdom for a horse" P.S. Jeff, I love your website!! Nancy Sullivan Tellico Plains, Tn.

Hey, I am so happy to hear that Windchill is doing so well. He’s one tough little dude! And I have to say, I like the first spelling of Windchill the best. Names are spelled as they are, and your spelling of Windchill is a unique part of who the little guy is. After all, you are not reporting the weather, you are talking about him. I will keep Windchill in my prayers. Get well!

Wind Chill and his caregivers: You all are now added to my rosary circle and we will be dedicating a rosary a day to all of you! This of course does not include all the individual prayers said in your names. God and St Francis will know that we want to keep Wind Chill here with us and what happened before will NOT happen to him again. That we value all creatures. You all are giving such a huge part of yourselves and your hearts to this little horse you didn't know before the rescue. I applaud all of you involved in Wind Chill's care, and taking care of the rest of the horses, dogs, cats, kittens and others that are fortunate enough to reside there. Wind Chill, you rest, get your strength and stand and move when you can. Eat and gain weight, your worries from that other place and time are over! I looked out into my pasture today and watched as my Fjord was soaking up some sunshine, soon he was stretched out on the snow--sunbathing. I wish this for you little one, someday you will be able to stand the cold and appreciate the sunshine on your back, of course the spring/summer and fall are REALLY good! I am sending my donation Sat. (2/22) as my retirement check was just deposited. God bless all of you, Jeanne and Monty along with the cats, dog, the wild birds who empty the feeders at least once a day, from cold, but warmer, MI.

Windchill I think of you every waking moment and pray for you.I can"t help but get angry {God forgive me} at those that let you get into this situation. I am in dog rescue and know how animals suffer at the hands of humans. I am sooo sorry this has happened to you. But I believe that you will be able to give humans a second chance. These people who are helping you are WOnderful and I believe that their love and care for you and your strong desire to live will pull you thru this. God truly was watching over you. I will pray for you and continue daily to read your updates and look forward to seeing you running in the green pastures this Spring. Don"t give up lil one..It will break too many hearts to lose you now that you are learning true "Human Love". Linda

Please do not take the time to respond to this Email. I would much rather you take that moment to comfort Windchill.

Thank you so much for letting us know there are still really great people in this world. Kathi, I met you Friday at Northern Communities CU. And you are still my daughter's hero and of course mine too, even though you are to nice to realize the hero you are. I repeat thanks so much for all you are doing!

I'll be praying for you Windchill!! God bless all of you for helping this little guy. 5 years ago, my old mare died due to complications giving birth. She died within 2 hours of delivering a healthy filly. For the next 3 days, friends, family & myself, stayed in the Morton building, feeding Orphan Annie with a baby bottle every 2 hours. Since she only got about 8 oz. of that first all important colesteum, she took a turn for the worse. At 3 1/2 days old, we took her, in the back of a suburban, two hours away, to K-State Universary. She came back 2 weeks later, with a french alpine dairy goat. Besides feeding Annie every 3 hours, she would also nurse on Sandy, the goat. They lived in my garage for 4 months. I put them in the chainlink fenced backyard during the day. It was lots of hard work. Fortunately, Annie was born the first of April. I can only imagine how cold it is there and how cold all of you are. Good luck!!

My husband and I own 11 horses of our own and they are our babies. Nothing too good for our babies. We would be extremely pleased to help anyway we can. If there is any special way we can help and you could let us know that would be great. If not, in a day or so we will do a donation for Windchill. What a wonderful thing you are doing.

Hi again my little friend. I wrote you 2 days ago when I heard about your story, but I just wanted to let you know that me and my gang are still thinking of you many times a day. I am out in California visiting my grandchildren for the very first time. I have told them all about you and my little Jiovani(1 year old) just looks at your picture and babbles away. I know he is telling his guardian angel to fly to you and warm you up. God will make sure you get better. I just know it. He has great plans for you. For know, just fly on the wings of God and dream of spring fields to sail through with your new family, and the people too. God speed to you and thanks for all the love, hope, and spirit that you have generated in this world of so much less. Good night my little buddy.

Windchill, you have my constant prayers for a complete recovery. I know that it will take your patience, as well as your fierce will to live. I am glad that you are surrounded by animal friends and humans who care for you. For Windchill's human caretakers, including ALL the volunteers, 1. I have sent a small donation to Equine Allies and Dan's Feed Bin, to help with what will certainly be an enormous cost. I will try to do this repeatedly, because I know that the costs will continue. 2. Take care of yourselves. You will be better caretakers for Windchill when you are well fed, warm, and hopefully rested. I know that is easier said than done. I have been a volunteer at Minnesota Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, and I know the drive to do everything ASAP accompanied by the exhaustion and fear of making a mistake in caring for any animal. If there is anything someone can do from long distance, PLEASE let me know. 3. I live near the U of M Veterinary Clinic in St. Paul. If there is anything you need for Windchilll, and I can drive up to your farm to get it to you, PLEASE let me know. It will happen, if you ask. Peace, health and joy, Sara

The update this morning said you had been up all night and that was very good news. Being on your feet had to definitely help your circulation. Have your people been able to massage your legs or are they to sensitive for that. Stay strong and I will check on you tonight after I take care of my horses for the night.

Dear Windchill -- Before I say "good morning" to my husband, the first words out of my mouth are "How is Windchill doing this morning?" Reading your updates and viewing the pictures/videos always brings tears to my eyes. Your will to survive, all of our prayers, and the awsome TLC (tender loving care) that you are receiving will make you a WINNER! Soon, you will be basking in the warmth of the sun and romping in the fields enjoying life as it is meant to be. Your ordeal and the way people have responded has been an inspiration to all of us!! God bless you all. We love you, Windchill -- Karen and Tom PS -- A check is in the mail for yogurt, carrots, apples. Also, how about a Windchill t-shirt. I bet there are lots of people who would love to have one, especially me!

Morning Brave Little Wind Chill! I am happy to hear that the temperatures have gotten warmer up your way. And eating yogurt and standing up all night is such wonderful news! To your "Dad" and your growing army of caregivers a huge "Atta Boy!!!" It is people like yourselves that give us hope about mankind. Blessings to all of you!

Oh my gosh, Windchill! So many things to congratulate you, Kathi, Jeff, and your herd of caregivers on! I'm sooo glad that you and Kathi are now legally bonded! I'm sooo glad you gained some weight from your last visit with your vet (I would be very interested to know how much you are gaining each time she comes to check you out)! And I am so glad that many folks are donating money, time, and equipment for your care, and so many that are praying for your continued recovery! Congratulations on Jeff keeping your name as "Windchill" - all one word, and for Jeff's eloquence in writing the updates about you for us. And a BIG congrats on standing up overnight! You are just remarkable, Windchill! I particularly loved the pic of you visiting with the horse (Sunday) in the next stall over! Even with all of your new human loved ones surrounding you, I'm sure it must be a comfort to have one of your own kind nearby also! Continue to hang in there, Windchill! Sending lots of sunflower thoughts and heartfelt prayers for you, from Kathy, Cisco and Jazz (the two Tonkinese furballs) in Kansas

Windchill, I just saw your premiere on Windchillcam! Kathi and Jeff will have to set your footprints in cement like the stars in Hollywood. I know you're not out of the woods yet, but when the question of the day becomes is it Windchill or Wind Chill (I prefer the former), the darkest days have passed. What an amazing life you're going to have. I can picture you as a therapy horse, giving encouragement and inspiration to people who have seemingly insurmountable illnesses. And finally, a shout out to the Raindance Horses for embracing Windchill as one of your own. You could be like my mule, Sourdough, who hates when anyone else gets attention. Carrots and hugs to you all.

Hey, what a day for Windchill - looks like he has been up and around most all the day - the web cam is great!!!! And thanks for taking "if he lives" off the main page - it just put doubt where doubt is not needed. I stew about all our foals, watch the baby cam for days before and after they are born, and now am watching Windchill. You are doing a wonderful job. It gets long and hard - been there done that with sick foals in the dead of winter (ours aren't much nicer that yours). Keep your chins up - PRAYING for strenght for Windchill and his caregivers. God bless.

Jeff and entire group at Raindance, I don't think this little guy could get anymore love or hope than he is getting at anyplace else, even the most expensive and elegant of horse operations. His white blaze and patience and willingness to submit to what must be tough times for him remind me of another blazed fighter, Barbaro. I am trusting that Windchill keeps fighting and pulls though. Bless all of you, I know how tired you all must be and I appreciate the sense of humor with which you write, especially from Windchill's point of view. As an animal lover and young at heart person I get a big kick out of that. Good luck. Keep on keeping us posted.

She plans to come and see you again today. Sorry that your buddy Case had to leave, we will all miss him sticking his nose in your business.

Good Morning Windchill, I hate the fact that work is getting in the way of me being able to see you. I miss your sparkling eyes, soft nickers and velvety soft muzzle, that I love to kiss. Thanks for putting up with Ashley yesterday, she really enjoyed the extra time with you. She was very proud of the fact that you were still standing when she left. She plans to come and see you again today. Sorry that your buddy Case had to leave, we will all miss him sticking his nose in your business. Don't listen to the guy with the bad attitude, he has no idea what he is talking about, you are doing GREAT!! I love you and will see you soon, Lori

i, too, was worried when I checked for your morning update and there was nothing posted since last night. Kept myself busy for 15 or 20 minutes and there it was, the update. Thank you ;Lord for helpingthis colt. Keep him in your loving hands. As for the former owner we have to let go of any negative feelings and channel those into positives for Windchill. Thank you again to all of those who continue to help this creature of God's. Have a good day Windchill. Will check on you later

Woof-woof Windchill! Ever since my Mom heard about you, all she does is check her computer and watch you on the cam. I drop my ball at her feet and all she talks about is YOU! You must be very, very special!! I'd like to come play with Walker. We would have fun playing fetch. When it's Spring we can play and run in the green pastures. Get well soon and hope we can watch you on the cam today! Lick-lick to your nose and bark, bark to Walker!

Hi Windchill, I"am a four year old tenn.walker named Domino. When I was rescued at age 18 months I was fending for myself. Now I am a beautiful 4 year filly that will do anything for the people that saved and love me. I am black with a white blaze down my face. My tail drags the ground when I walk and my mane hangs 2 ft.below my neck. When I look at you I can see a younger me. I know you are loved just as much as I am, so I am sure you will make a fine colt. If you are every down Va. way maybe we could get togeather and ride the miles of trails I call home. I know my my two legged parents would like to see you. They think they own me but I am the one who cares for them more then they will ever know. Well its in the 50s today so Im going to teach them somemore human maners. Hope to see you on the trail. Take care, get strong, and remember we all love you.

Good morning Windchill, I hope you are resting comfortably as it is a little bit warmer outside. We can't believe you broke your standing record- way to go! Be sure to rest when you can. We were able to watch you on your webcam a little bit on Sunday, we really enjoyed watching over you and saw all of your new friends stopping by to visit. I think we even got to see your new friend "Bonnie" lower her head down into your stall a few times giving you words of encouragement. . it was very cute. Sounds like you have enough strawberry yogurt to last you a while, I will send money to Dan's Feed Bin and I hope you find something there you may like too. It is okay if you don't like the fancy stuff they want to feed you, I am a beer kind of girl too! =) But maybe you should try another taste because you need it to get stronger?! We send a BIG Thank You to your new family for taking such wonderful care of you and for keeping all of us posted on how you are doing. You have a wonderful life ahead of you with them! You have no idea how many hearts you have touched and that number keeps on growing. Stay strong and keep getting better Windchill! We love you!!

Jeff and all involved in saving this little guy, God Bless you all! I first heard the story from my Mom last week as she had seen a spot on Fox News about Windchill. So i did the obvious thing and went online. After reading articles i then went to your site and wow am i glad. First of all, you introduce the farm and all your pets as part of the family as they should be!! You sound like my family and how i was raised. I grew up with horses, my sister and her husband have mustangs, so we know how horses touch your life. We had a Aussie who loved one of our horses and Walker reminds me of her. We had a barn cat that would really rather be with the horses than any other animal. Anyway, we understand why you gave Windchill a chance. I have also become addicted to you Jeff and how you express yourself thru your words. You have such a big heart thank you for that! Thank you for loving animals, all of them! Thank you for taking so much time to let all of us see inside your life and Windchill's life. You all are in my thougts constantly. Stay warm and give Windchill a kiss for me on his soft little nose.

I seen the article in the Duluth News Tribune, I was so sad to hear what happened to Windchill. It's so disheartening to hear that this happens to animals, that it's easy to give up hope, but then people like you and everyone you've mentioned, give the ray of light that there is still hope, and have faith that things will get better, and that there are good people out there. Thank you so much for taking the time to post updates about what's going on, I tried to follow it in the paper but hadn't really been seeing much, so I researched a bit and found this site. My prayers go to you, family, and friends for the strength to keep up the fight and for Windshill to get the strenght to heal, both in body and spirit.

Have you thought about putting the videos on youtube.com? I think it's free and the videos can be up to 10 minutes in length---that might help you out with server space. I drive by nearly everyday and can't wait until I see Windchill (my favorite spelling) outside with your other "kids". Don't forget to take care of yourself while you're caring for the little man.

Life is a gift that the humblest may boast of And one that the humblest may well make the most of.

WOW - that's a tough decision! Both love and knowledge are key in his recovery. How far are you from the clinic? Are visits realistic? I remember reading the updates on Barbaro and thinking how much the staff where he was brought grew to love him. I know the same would happen with Windchill - look at all of us and we haven't even met him yet! Winchill, I'll continue to pray for your recovery. Jeff, Kathi and others, I'll pray for God to lead you in your decisions regarding Windchills future care! Also, will include prayers for financial assistance! Blessings, Mary

Dear Windchill -- Your update this morning has me in tears. Windchill, you are such a fighter -- it is going to be a long, difficult fight to get better, but you will do it. You have to do it. There is a reason God did not want you up "in the big green pasture". You were put on this earth, Windchill, to bring out the good and love in humans. You are always in my thoughts and prayers, Windchill. and your caregivers, too. Karen

Wind Chill, Jeff, Kathi and all caregivers: Sounds like you tired yourself out from the night you stood for so long. You know now that you are surrounded by caring people who are going to make sure you have water, food, grain, medicine (yup, that stuff), along with love and a warm stall and animal friends. So you can take some time to rest and let your body heal and gain strength. Maybe take the standing up in shorter periods of time, your legs need to support you and your body needs you to be able to stand. You have come so far and you still have a long way to go, so take it easy my little one, each day you are with us is precious and we want to measure your stay in years and years. I know you all will make the best decision for Wind Chill travelling to the vet. hospital. It will be hard not to have him in your barn and being able to give him your own special attention. It will be hard on 'us' not to have your updates. This has got to be hard on the hearts of all of you who have given so much of yourselves to see Wind Chill this far. God bless you in your decision. Let Wind Chill know if he goes to the hospital, that it is for what is best, that he is not being abandoned by his rescuers or his friends. I know you all must be getting exhausted, I cannot express my admiration that I feel for all of you in this undertaking. Angels walk the earth. Jeanne

Hi little one. Hope this morning will find you feeling better. I am hoping your legs will warm up soon. I pray for you, and please keep fighting. I know your Dad is wondering if you should go on a little trip to the big hospital. I hope they can come to you, cause you finally have a family who cares for you. You know that. You might get lonely and worry that you don't have a safe home anymore. But, everyone wants you to get better so if that is the ONLY way, maybe it would be best. I am hoping that help can come to you.

For some reason I dreaded signing on this morning. Is there heat in the barn? Maybe Windchill could take up residency in the house? I grew up on a farm and many times we had sheep, pigs, calves and little wild animals in our kitchen. I would be willing to take my vacation and spend two weeks with Windchill if I could be of help either there are the vets. Please let me know if you need me. I'm praying for you Windchill, don't give up.

dear jeff and caretakers: you are doing such a super job with the little guy. i know you all love him and are now struggling with sending him to the U. i wonder if his mental state at this point is what is going to help him get through. he finally has a good, caring family that will keep him safe. He has probably has NEVER known love and gentleness. If he has to go away would he feel abandoned? Will he feel alone? He is used to all of you being around. I hope today is a better day for him. Please give him a big hug for me. thank you all for your love and devotion

Get Well Windchill! Lots of people are pulling for you and praying for you. Keep your spirit up and always believe in miracles. I myself have seen the power of love to pull a sick animal out of despair. I adopted a young pup whom had Parvo and with a lot of love and a lot of help from his vet staff he is a healthy full grown wonderful boy. Miracles happen Windchill and we're praying for yours. To the caregivers of this beautiful animal i believe Windchill will grow to full potential and you will all reap the rewards of the love and time you have put into this amazing creature. Keep your spirits up, my prayers are with all of you also. You are all amazing people with enormous hearts. Love to all, Gwenn

Keep fighting. The will to live is strong. I lost my best 4 legged friend of 28 years, Zanzy, over a year ago (thank you, Jamie Meagher DVM for being there) & gave his friend, Abu, away as he was lonesome being the only horse so I am "horseless" now & I miss them everyday. Reading about you helps me. I should come visit sometime but I would probably want to take you home with me! Thank you for being there for me & keep on fighting.

Jeff, y'all are facing a tough decision. If ya had a child this sick you would want him to have the best care...as much as you have done..can you give Windchill the best help there on the farm? If the dreaded worst happens...you will be asking yourself..did we do all we could have. As much as I hate going to the hospital..sometimes that is the only option. Is there someone in your group of caregivers who could make the trip and stay during the recovery process? Y'all are tired and it is hard to make a decision when you are in that condition. Listen to the professionals and may the Lord guide you in your decision. You all are in my prayers.

Good Morning Windchill, just read the latest update. Both good and sad news that you may have to go to the hospital. If you do go, I hope one of your "peoples" can go with you. Maybe they can rotate each day so you always have at least one person you know with you in the strange place. St. Paul is only about 2.5 hours from Duluth, so it could be a day trip. I, along with many others, am praying for you little man. God bless you and your caretakers who love you.

Good Morning Precious Windchill- So you literally had an 'up & down' nite, Honey. Did you overdue the other day? Hopefully today you'll rest, eat & get up for @ least short periods of time. Your dad & mom are trying to decide if going to a hospital is best for you. What a decision they have on their hands! I think they may wait a few days before they decide to see how you're doing. So YOU will be the one guiding them in this decision as well as all the prayers being sent their way to help them decide. They will know what's best for you, Little One.

Jeff: Only you, Kathi and the volunteers know how much more you can do before you are worn out. Is there more medically that Wind Chill needs that can only be given at the Vet Hospital? You mention that Wind Chill slips in and out of depression, would the transfer worsen this since he obviously is attached to you, Kathi and 'his volunteers.' I cannot imagine the decisions you have all had to make to get Wind Chill to this point. I know you will all make the best decision for him. You all have gotten a very warm place in the hearts of many people as does this fighter you have named "Wind Chill." Continued blessings. Jeanne

Jeff--You have a tough decision to make. Certainly Windchill's best possible chance for life must come first and it sounds like the U of M can offer him that hope. But the little man has bonded with you and your crew of volunteers. Some of his will to live and spirit must be coming from his daily contact with you, therefore becoming a major factor in his struggle to survive. Is there any way you could take a leave of absence from your other responsibilities to go with him to the U? Then he could have the best of both worlds. Could your horse friends take over the care of your other animals while you were away? Can someone else step in and cover your business duties? I can't imagaine that the U would be able, or willing to move everything for Windchill's care to your farm---they must have other animals they're caring for---would they be short staffed at their facility if they sent someone here? Is there another facility closer to home that would work? Do you have a contact email for the U where we can send requests that they come here and care for Windchill? If so, please post it---otherwise I'll go to their site and see if I can find a link to post here. Mel

Windchill, Surely, the angels above wept when they saw you frozen and starved in that field....Those angels sent Kathi and Jeff to you. My heart was broken when I read your story. Please summon that "quiet determination" that Jeff speaks of that you have. Keep your spirits up and keep fighting. So many people love you and are praying for you. You have touched the hearts of many. May you regain your strength and live a long and happy life, knowing nothing but love. As a well respected man once said about another horse,"....if tears could heal...", you would be well and strong now. God bless you Windchill. I'm praying for you. Sandy K. in Texas

* Jeff & Windchil,.......Jeff, pl. realize there is absolutely no reason for you to make any apologies re: any update you post. Windchill's 'ups & downs' are our 'ups & downs' as well! As for any 'walls' you may have thought you had, to protect from an emotional roller coaster, I think Windchill broke down everyone's 'walls', immediately. When you wrote of any anger/ frustration you may have re: Windchill's condition upon being found, I, as well as so many, share those same thoughts & emotions. You are human Jeff even tho you are living @ a super human pace. You are a major part of why Windchill is even trusting humans! Pl. don't be so hard on yourself. You are tired, yet remain totally dedicated & loving. Windchill & we, thank you for ALL that you are doing. * Windchill, Glad your spirit was better today, Little One. Perhaps you needed the rest you got today. You've been having a lot of big days for such a little colt. Pl. rest, heal, eat,drink, get up on your ft. when needed & feel the warm love of so very many. Con't prayers being sent your way as well as for all your wonderful caretakers. Keep your spirit up, Precious One...it's an integral part of your personality! We know you are not out of the woods yet & probably won't be for a while...just keep taking baby steps!....xoxo

Your will to live and your exceptional spirit are going to make you one of the best horses that ever lived! I have prayed for you EVERY DAY, since I heard of your rescue, when Jeff talked to the folks on Fox News Channel. I have been following your progress on-line ever since (thank you Jeff & Kathi - you are AMAZING human beings), and I know you have to feel the love and caring feelings of sooooo many people surrounding you. I have never had the opportunity of owning or taking care of a horse, but have always respected the beauty and wonder of them! I volunteer at our local Humane Society and mostly foster kittens and cats. My sickest kitty (that I was going to adopt)my "Little Kitty That Could", named Rossie, only lived 3 months when his internal organs began to shut down and had to be put to sleep. He too had more spirit than I ever thought could come from something that small. YOU, however - are going to show all of us just how YOUR WILL TO LIVE is going to make you strong and live out a happy life, FULL of LOVE. You have WONDERFUL, loving people who care about you that are taking care of you. Work with them and fight with everything you have, little one!! You are loved around the world! May God bless you and give you all the strength you need....

Wonderful, wonderful, heart-warming story! I thank you for sharing. Windchill is a great name for a courageous little guy. I plan to send a small donation to you for Windchill's care. Thanks again for sharing his and your story. On a side note, I have been involved w/the Spring Valley (WI) Refuge Farm efforts thru my daughter-in-law's volunteer time there. Your rescues certainly equal those of Sandy and her volunteers and I applaude your continued efforts, as I do Sandy and her volunteers. Kudos to you and your crew for all you've done and continue to do for Windchill. We owe him and all of them that and more.

Oh my! I came upon this story quite by accident as a result of tracking another story in the Duluth News Tribune. Windchill, you are an amazing little colt! Thank God that kind, caring people found you in the nick of time. Though your story is one that causes a clash of emotions--anger and disbelief that someone could be so callous as to abandon you in such harsh elements, and the good emotions of compassion, love, and a deep appreciation and respect for life. As your circle of well-wishers grows, so will your strength. Love conquers all dear, little Windchill. In no time at all you'll be stretching those long legs and froliking in the warm, sun-drenched pastures. If it's possible that a courageous horse could give a bit of his strength and courage to another, I believe that the great Barbaro looked down at you, little Windchill, and softly breathed his great breath into your weak but determined body. Thanks to everyone who contributed to your rescue and care. Get well, Windchill! We're praying for you! "Until one has loved an animal, part of his soul remains unawakened". ~Anatole France

I"ve been getting up every morning and seeing how the brave little spirt is and enjoying your dialogs. This morning I was a little down after reading your morning notes and a little depressed. I then rememberd my daughter who had a eating disorder and what they told us. When they are that malnourished the food they recieve will first go to all of there organs and replenish them so there is now way after 2 weeks you would see any weight gain. However what you are seeing is a will that cannot be crushed and a spirt that won't be stopmed out. Keep up the great care and know that our Postitive thoughts will always be with you.

Jeff, Kath and all, You know how hard it is to read with tears running from your eyes. I have always been such a softy when it comes to animals and Windchill is now exception. I watch Animal Planet and most of those stories make me cry, my dogs, even our squirrels in the yard we feed all winter just would break my heart if something were to happen to all of them. I am sure everyone else feels as I do, your head tries to tell you that things might not work out but your hear won't let you build a barrier against the possible hurt. Keep on doing all you can and all of us will hope and pray and cheer you on. Most of all keep your good sense of humor, I'm sure that helps Windchill as much as anything. He has an amazing spirit.

Hey there, Windchill. I hear you're sad because you don't understand why you suffered the life you had before Jeff & Kathi rescued you. It's sad beyond imagining, but animals all over the world suffer terribly, from Raccoon dogs in China to pack mules in Afghanistan. God holds their suffering in his palm. Pro 12:10 A righteous man has regard for the life of his animal, But even the compassion of the wicked is cruel. You may not know it Windchill, but your suffering is known by our Father, and He will make it worth more than gold. His Son suffered for the world - Windchill, that includes you and those who've hurt you. Heal, forgive, and grow strong Little Braveheart!

Good Morning, Jeff, and of course, Windchill -- Your morning update has made by day -- it is only 5:04 am here in California. Last night my husband and I held hands in bed and prayed for Windchill and for you to make the right decisions regarding Windchill's care. Our prayers were answered! Windchill is certainly better with you and all the people that surround him with their love. There is a reason why Windchill hung-on to life waiting for YOU. It would have been far easier just to close his eyes and go to "sleep". WINDCHILL ROCKS!! We back you 110% and wished everyone shared your beliefs. Thank God for people like you. Another donation will be coming to you for some extra special treats for Windchill-- Thanks again for making our day!! Karen and Tom

Good Morning to Windchill and all! I must admit I am so glad to hear of the decision to keep Windchill at your place Jeff. I just can't imagine him getting any better care anywhere else, and I think that the "love" factor plays a bigger part than any of us know. No doubt you are all getting very tired from the routine and the stress of this whole ordeal, but I'm sure it lessens when you see even a very small improvement in him, or when he "talks" to you. No doubt everyone has an opinion on what you should do, but I'm glad you make decisions on what you are seeing and feeling by being up close and personal to the situation. Thank you for taking the time to update like you do, it seems there are many people like myself, who are checking their computers many times a day...just to see... Blessings to you, Kathi, and all the crew, and especially to Windchill.

No need to respond. I have been following Windchill's story for about a week now. Each morning I check to see how he's doing (and how you all are doing, too). This has restored my faith in humanity. So many good people working so hard to help this magnificent animal survive incredible odds. What lessons you all teach me each and every day. I am feeling an incredible amount of anger at the people who allowed this to happen in the first place. I know this is not the time and place to deal with this, but I do hope there will be some kind of . . . consequences for them. Windchill, you've got a lot of people standing with you. Don't give up your fight. You are a special horse who has touched the hearts and lives of so many of us. You give me the courage to face the small challenges I face. Keep fighting! And we will fight with you.

Good Morning Windchill, Jim and Caregivers. I was so happy to read the post from last night and this am. I know we have so far to go, but each glimmer of hope helps. I know lots of people are giving their opinions. We all know you have already thought of these various ideas people are throwing out. I think it is because we live so far away and feel so very helpless. I think we feel like we are part of Windchill's life and want to be there too to give our love and caring hands. I know you all have been going on very little sleep and are under a great amount of stress. I wish I could help with that too. I so admire you good people who do it because you care. Jim, you say your no expert, but you all are experts in giving your whole heart in love. God Blees you all. God Speed to you Windchill. Glad you were feeling a little perkier. Keep on munching!

Good Morning Jeff, Windchill, and all the Friends. You guys are doing such a great job! Jeff, as a fellow horse owner and lover, I love your updates with all the personality. Windchill, Keep up the good work, it's hard, but, we all have our ups and downs...sometimes all I wanna do is nap and be covered up with a blanket too. Take your vitamins little buddy, you need them to keep up with the progress you want to make and are making. It's hard not to be angered by what has happened to you, but, it's better to put it in the past and keep moving forward. Like they say in horse training, if something makes you angry, smile through it. Anyway, have a good day everyone!

I will try to say this nicely, but as you are, I am upset if people are giving you a hard time for letting us know the reality of Wind Chill's condition. I know we all have freedom of speech (including you) and that includes them too. However, it is too easy for some people to be "arm chair quarterbacks" or otherwise "Know-it'alls." You are the one who is putting your time and love into this colt and I think that gives you somewhat more rights than the rest of us, and this includes your frustration, disappointment in others that led to this situation, etc. You do not owe any of us an apology for letting us know how bad you felt, however, I'm sure you have learned a hard lesson to be more watchful on who you "confide" in. Good luck, God Bless, and thank you for all you are doing for this little colt we have all fallen in love with!!

To Jeff and all the caretakers, I am extremely happy to know you have decided for Windchill to stay at home and continue his recovery. In my opinion, no medical facility can replace the unconditional, dedicated love you have given him. When I read one of the earlier posts from the parent of a child with an eating disorder, it makes complete sense to me that his body would heal from the inside out. My biggest encouragement is that Jeff, Kathie and all who are directly involved are listening to the advice from the professionals, but taking direction from God's Holy Spirit. When we listen to those undeniable inner promptings, we make the right choices. Windchill is a living miracle with no scientific explanation as to how he survived his ordeal and how he still lives today. I think we all can agree that God no doubt has a hand in all of this. Bless you Jeff for trusting in that and taking a stand for what you believe. I feel Windchill will be a living testimony of the power of belief and prayer. I'm still praying for all of you daily and keeping up with the updates. Please give Windchill a hug and kiss for me. He means so much to us all. xxoo

Jefferey, I check Windchill's progress every day, and I am impressed..with his BARN CREW!! His staff, you guys are second to none.In the cold, with the public in and out you guys are consistant in his care. I know what a chore it is to try and remain 'normal' with all this going on around you.I know how hard it is, caring for him in a cold barn, been there done that, but his barn is warmed by the love each of you are showing him. I spent 33 years with an Appaloosa gelding, and toward the last days of his life he was so dependant, and the love he showed me for those 33 years continued until he drew his last breath.The time,money, memories erased all . He gave me far more than I ever gave him.I just made sure he led a comfortable life, just what you and your family, and friends are doing now.My prayers, and a small donation are all I can give, I will continue to pray for his recovery, and will never forget what great people you all are!

Good Morning Baby Windchill, Jeff, and all the volunteers!!!! What wonderful news this a.m. that Windchill is in good spirits and continues to fight on. His will to survive is indeed a miracle-there is no other explanation!! Being in the medical field, and caring for very sick patients, I have seen that it a person's attitude & will to get better that is the most important thing to their healing and survival. Secondly, it is their family's and friend's love & support and prayers. And thirdly, the medical care. Windchill has all three. You all are doing a incredible job and know how tired you all must be. Please take care of you too. I am glad Windchill has you. Continued prayers for you all.XOXOXOXO for Windchill from me!!!!

Kudos to Windchill and Associates for setting some boundaries for all of those who love the little guy and want to offer support. The ICU nurse in me had to turn off the barn cam watching the steady stream of visitors last weekend. Love and support are essential for healing, but so is rest - not just for Windchill, but for those who have been caring for him around the clock. As a nurse I've had to gently turn away many, many well meaning visitors when patients just need some peace and quiet to rest and recover. Hopefully Windchill will have a long, long life in which to greet his adoring public once he is strong enough to be able to walk away when he's had enough. He is just a baby who has a lot of healing to do and I hope folks respect your boundaries and give Windchill and his great care team the space and peace to achieve his miraculous recovery.

Good morning Jeff, Crew and especially Wind chill. What an uplifting update this morning. My favorite people are cowboys. They love God and country and tell it like it is. We would have to "walk a mile in your boots" to know what you are really going through. I know when we go out on 6-8 hr. trail ride several days in a row my horses are very tired for a couple days after. Wind Chill was probably just "pooped" after standing for so many hours and just needed to rest. If all his body functions are working good and he is eating and drinking I think he is going to come out of this, but it's just going to take time and will be a long winding road with lots of ups and downs. My husband says he just ran out of gas and there was no reserve to draw from and it took him some time to refuel. Nancy, Tn

Good morning from Quebec Canada ! Wishing Windchill a good day! You are a lucky little one to be surrounded by loving, caring and capable people! I've been checking in on your daily progress notes and Jeff I would like to just remind you of that old saying "if you want to get criticized - just do something!!" Also all of you must being getting pretty tired and the more tired we humans get the greater the worry and anxiety can become - and as humans we are then often inclined to react by getting ticked off or downright angry ! It's normal !!So keep on doing the next "best" thing - day by day and try to ignore the ignorant flack that comes your way! I am continuing to keep Windchill and you all in my thoughts and prayers - Best Wishes to you all Helen (no reply necessary!)

GOOD MORNING WI! Jeff, we all get angry over what happened to Wind Chill, today when I was cleaning stalls and the barn, my hands and feet got cold, really cold, it made me angry that while it was temporary, that someone left this little guy to die!! Didn't care about him, toss some hay, have water out but not check to see how each horse under their care is doing, or if they are down....well, one was down. So with all the work you have to do to save this little guy and an uncertain future, you and your crew have every right to feel anger, get depressed and especiall when you think Wind Chill is 'at least a 1, and he doesn't even make it to a 1' what makes us all human is to have a range of emotions. I commend you for keeping up with everything you have to do and still find time to post here. Bless you, Kathi and all who are helping. Wind Chill, you eat those groceries and drink your water, soon winter will loose its grip and the sun will warm your back. God sure knows that we love all of you! Jeanne

I have to say you & all of Windchill's care giviers rock!!! I know he appreciates it. As far as the ups & downs. We raise boer goats & it is always up & down when they are sick. We had a buck that we went through the ups & downs for about 4 months. It was agonizing. I saw a ranch by the name of roll a coster ranch a few months ago. I thought to myself that name is the most fitting name I can think of for anybody raising anaimals. You always have the ups & downs. You are doing a awesome job of caring for the little fellow!! Above all else do not forget it that! Just trust your heart to let you know what to do for him. Your heart told you yesterday where he needed to be to get the best care & you are right. He would get more Medical care at the university but the real care that will pull him through this, he will only get with you & all of your helpers! Believe it or not your care is giving him the strength to fight just like his reactions are giving you & everyone the strength to fight for him!! God bless you & all of the people trying to help!! Wish I was closer tecause I would be there in a New York minute! Laughing at the highs & crying at the lnows right along with all of You!! God's speed to Windchill & his caregivers!!!

You need to continue following your gut regarding the little guy's care. You all are right - he has survived because of you and would be devastated without you caring for him. Love IS his most important medicine. I know you get a lot of unknown people's opinions and mine is one more. But I am a registered nurse and worked for many years as a licensed veterinary technician. I have seen many species in pain and sick, but the miracles occur with the ones that are loved. Keep loving him and we all are praying for him AND for warmer weather. Take care.

Little Windchill, I check several times a day to see how you're doing. I am pleased to see you appear to be doing as well as can be expected in this short time of you Delivery from the Great Unknown. But whatever happens in the 'Windhill Experience', I think all of us -your friends- can come away with 2 important truths: There are wonderful people in the world, some right there around you, who love you and are doing everything in their power to keep your recovery proceding apace. And secondly, there are kind-hearted and caring people from all over the world and all walks of life who have heard of you and are now tuned into lifting you up to recovery in any way they can. That farm, that place where you now live will always have an aura of caring and love around it. I pray you will remain there to enjoy that aura for many years. We all love you, Windchill.

Wind Chill, Jeff, Kathi and all the crew/volunteers: First thanks so much for the new photo's, they show a much happier, improved Wind Chill. From your lastest post, if you are getting private emails that are anything less then supportive for what you have done, and how you are doing it, then I say shame on whoever they are for NOT posting on the Guestbook and leaving their names/emails and state. I hope that no one threatening any harm to you or Wind Chill. He is under Kathi's and your care and protection. Contact your friends at the sheriff's dept. Wind Chill is doing wonderful in the loving surroundings, you have medical advice for him. Perhaps one of the factors that is helping Wind Chill is that he is in a 'backyard barn' that has a good exchange of air, he has other horses around him, the love of a good barn cat and his dog friend...who knows, but whatever it is, it is working. I am in awe of all of you. No one could be doing what all of you are doing if it wasn't just for the love of this little guy and giving him a chance when most would have taken the easy way out. Continued blessings and prayers for all of you. Wind Chill, you have a great night and don't overdo. Jeanne

Keep on keeping on! ((hugs to you all)) btw, the "hittin' the web update" Chrystal (Hi, Chrystal!) referred to is the Allman Brothers Band newsletter we send out. It goes to over 75,000 people worldwide and we did indeed include sweet Windchill on our prayer list today. Take care and know that you are loved, Lana

Windchill, Jeff & Kathi, Great News! I'm so happy that you're feeling active again. This afternoon's post was the best news I've had all day. I guess the key to your healing is the right mixture of food, rest and exercise, along with generous doses of love and attention....And Jeff, Kathi and the rest of the volunteers seem to be dialing in on that mixture without leaving out anything. Have a great night. Don't tire yourself out too much but enjoy being upright!

Hi Jeff....just read your latest post and we want you to know that for whatever it's worth, this family of 6 from Virginia stands behind you! No matter if Windchill is in your barn or some fancy heated place, he wouldn't be alive if it weren't for God's will and Windchill's spirit. Some people won't understand that, but I think most will. You just keep on keepin' on and know that many, many people pray on a daily basis for you, the crew and Windchill. YOU ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING! God Bless You! The Bruner's

Windchill, I don't know if you know, but you've got quite the band of supporters rooting for you...and that includes me! I don't know horses, but I can tell you've got the will to live, and frankly, that's all you need. William Shakespeare said "To climb steep hills requires a slow pace at first." I know you'll get to the top of that hill. Wishing you all the best from snowy Bowdoin College in Maine, Jake

Hi Windchill...Great job, but I knew you would do it. You love Jeff so much and it shows in you trying to stand for him when he came home. You know us humans need your spirit to keep us going. Remember that you are the boss and Jeff and Kathi are doing an awesome job in every aspect of your care. They love you so much and would only do what they know is best for you. Tell them that I 100% agree with everything that was in your update. I'll check in with you all later. God Speed, your friend Billy

You look wonderful and happy right where you are Windchill. You are in the best place now. You could be in the fanciest hi tech equine hospital, but you would not be surrounded by all the love and warmth you have. Lots of good barn buddies right by your side encouraging you too. Keep munching the hay and best wishes to all your human caregivers too.

Jeff, I have been checking on Windchill's progress ever since I saw the story on KARE 11 news last week. I was depressed after I read the updates last night and wasn't sure I wanted to check today. I'm glad I did. I said a prayer last night for Windchill asking for healing. I hope it worked and that he continues to improve. I am an animal lover myself, with 5 cats, a dog, and fish. I know how special the animals are and how attached we get to them. You are doing a GREAT job. Keep up the good work. Blessings to you and all of Windchill's volunteers. From the Golberg family in Park Rapids, MN near the Headwaters of the great Mississippi.

GOD BLESS YOU AND THE WHOLE CREW!! I was moved to tears to read about little Windchill and the wonderful people you and your crew are! I can personally atest for the difference unconditional love and attention can make with sick equines. My sister and I spent 4days of 3-4hours shifts this past summer when our beloved Shetland foundered. Every 4hours we forced her on her feet and she is still with us and as bratty as ever. Don't let the ignorant get you down, some people just don't understand the desire to love and animal that has had so much pain but still has so much fight!. We also rescued a aging donkey from a closing farm auction, she was a 1 on the scale and now she is a 7! for the first month we had to help her up as she was so weak and her feet were so deformed she couldn't do it on her own. I wish I could send you something to help in Windchill's recovery but the only thing I can do is keep him and all of you in my thoughts and prayers. Keep up the wonderful work and God Bless you! Please give Windchill a special hug from me and a nuzzle from Hope the donkey, she is routing for him! God Bless Bonnie and horses at Millbrook Ave Stable

Hey little one, you made your Daddy's heart go pitty-pat tonight when he saw you trying to stand up when he entered the barn! GO WINDCHILL GO! I found a quote by Og Mandino (that's okay, I don't know who he is, either)and it made me think of you: "I will persist until I succeed. Always will I take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another. In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult...I know that small attempts, repeated, will complete any undertaking." I love you, Windchill, and am sending healing and thankful prayers your way. Stay stromg!

Hi precious Windchill....How wonderful that you are trying so hard to stand up. I predict in a few days you'll surprise your new dad and greet him with your head over the door. Keep getting stronger and stronger. I love you and my little dogs, Izzy and Reggie, do also. Have a good evening tonight and don't ever give up. I know you won't.

Wind Chill, precious baby boy, how thankful I am that you are still with us. I can't tell you how many times during the past week that I've sent up prayers for you. I have a Post-It on my kitchen cabinet that reads, "Prayer Can Do Whatever God Can Do!" I know that He has heard every prayer sent up on your behalf. Earlier today, I was barely able to read Jeff's post from yesterday because of all the tears. You've been through so much. Sleep well little angel, I'll be checking on you tomorrow.

Dear Jeff, We have been watching and reading the story of Windchill unfold from your writings and photos, and we want to send our prayers and encouragement to not only Windchilll but to you, your family and all the people who are helping you to bring Windchill back from near death to hopefully good health. We understand the value of animal life as well as human life, and no one can tell me that an animal life is not worth saving. We're glad you are keeping Windchill home among those that love him and we know that one of the main reasons Windchill is responding is because of the loving care he is receiving. Keep up the wonderful work and rest assured that the majority of those who are witnessing this story unfold support you.
