I'm sorry that time caught up with your Bella. That's always hard. But I'm glad to hear Camellia had enough energy to make a fool of her crippled self. Animals can have a different agenda from ours and some times the results are just too amazing.

Hi Sherry and Camelia, Sorry to hear about your loss, it really has been a tough time for you all told eh ? I admire your continued strength and courage and hope you get a break soon. On the other hand great news about Camelia, maybe you should enter her for our 'Grand National', she'd be a winner ! Take care, Jon

Just to update everyone---Camelia is still doing well.
There have been no real improvements but no setbacks either.
I am having trouble getting my two video clips of Camelia posted to photobucket. I have them on my computer, but when photobucket searches the computer, they aren't there. My still pictures are there, but the video clips are gone

Try tinypic.com I haven't had any problems there and it is easier to use than photobucket.
I have been following your story and would love to see videos. You are a trooper! I am constantly amazed with your strength with what life has handed to you. God bless you and your family.

My father recently asked me if I was going to breed Camelia again. I said, "no." He asked why I was going to keep her if she wasn't productive. My answer was--she has done everything I have asked her to do, come through so much, and God has answered so many prayers allowing her to survive, how can I end her life now? I love seeing her grazing in the pasture and she seems happy. She has a home with me as long as she naturally lives.
And you guys have been INVALUABLE to me and Camelia!! I love you all!!

What a beautiful brave girl!!! I can tell that she is glad she is alive and still with you. You have done well Sherry. She certainly isn't the kind of cow to give up.

She looks wonderful! She seems to be looking for a treat ("Why did you call me over here-and no food or scratches?") and I like the dog, too. GOOD JOB!! Janene
