Aiden

“Ring! Ring!” “Hello? Hi Anna its Kelly. I have some really sad news for you. This morning Aiden passed away.” I had just gotten home from the store and as soon as I got home the phone immediately rang. It was Kelly. She told me the horrible news about Aiden dying. Aiden was my favorite horse at my riding stable, Silver Horseshoe Stables, who passed away on Saturday morning. The sadness took over my body and I started to cry. Kelly had told me that Rich, my instructor, had gone out to the pasture to bring all the horses back in, in the morning and he couldn’t find Aiden. He then saw him in the corner of the pasture lying on his side. He was a limp leaf. Rich then rushed over, saw that he was in pain, offered him a treat to calm him down, and then hurried to call the vet. The vet got there as fast as lightning and it turned out that Aiden had a broken leg. One of the horses had kicked him in the pasture. Rich and the vet then decided that it was best to put him out of his pain and put him down. I couldn’t believe it when I heard. Aiden was only 8 years old and he still had a long lasting life in front of him. He didn’t deserve to die so early. Now Aiden spends his days galloping through heaven, hopefully happier now.
