Hugs and prayers to you.  I have no advice on the kissing spine issue.  But, had respiratory crud in 3 of my 5 last year and Strangles in 1 so I spent all winter 2012-13 doctoring too.  My one with strangles is doing fine now so I believe your mare will too! Hang in there!!

I think everybody goes through times where it seems hopeless. When it comes to horses, if it's not one thing, it's another. You can't ever truly keep everything under control it seems like. I don't have any advice for you but plenty of prayers for guidance. I hope everything works out!

 I am going through something similar - been on about an 8 year break and bought an OTTB last year.  Could never get him sound so gave him away.  Looked about 6 months and found another OTTB.  This guys was a total rock star, after 6 weeks in training he was showing amazing promise.  He somehow got hurt in the pasture and lacerated the tendon sheath in his left hind.  Had surgery about 4 weeks ago but the prognosis is still TBD - anything from he will never heal, to only pasture sound, to upper level performance horse.  I have to bandage and doctor EVERY SINGLE DAY - just the bandage material is $30/day.  There are days I want to quit but just when I'm ready to call it he has some sort of break through and I see progress.  It is trying and frustrating but I have to feel like I've done all I can.

Many prayers and good thoughts for you!
