Beautiful Bella



I had the honor of doing some very special photos for my 16 year old next door neighbor yesterday. Emily is a lover of ALL animals! They have dogs and cats and even a horse, Willow. For a while they even had 2 ducks! Emily heard about this horse, over near the coast, who had been abandoned for nearly 2 months. So, of course, Emily and her mom and stable owner drove out and brought the horse home. She named her Bella. 2 days ago at Bella's Dr.'s appointment they found out that Bella has cancer, the doctor thinks she's had it for a long time. They were given the option to put her down or just wait it out. Horses don't get better from cancer, this lump that Bella has is the largest the Dr. had ever seen. Emily has decided to keep Bella at the stable (which the stable owner, Ken, has given her free rent for Bella since she is rescued) and just let her be a horse who is loved until it is her time to go. So yesterday I was able to go and capture some great moments of Emily and the Beautiful Bella.
