Hoofbeats in Heaven has its own e-mail support group created
to provide the solace and comfort you are seeking. Here you will find
you are not alone in your grief over the death of your horse.
As a group of over 400 horse lovers who have lost, or are anticipating
losing, our cherished family member, we understand and respect the deep bond
that you form with your equine companion. We know, perhaps better then anyone,
the pain and emotional void left from their physical absence. Our goal
is to help each other work through our grief and to find peace in coming
to know that our horses live on if we carry them in our hearts.
We welcome your memories and stories of your horse, memorial tributes, grief
healing information, questions, and your own experience of losing your horse.
The topics we discuss are endless, as we continually strive to listen, respond
and support.
We have created various resources to help you begin to see through your grief
that you can come to focus less on the death of your horse and begin to focus
on the glory of his/her life. All list members are invited to
start a Photo Album of their beloved horse and to include them in our Honor
Roll. Once a week, we honor one of our member's horses who has gone
on ahead by posting his/her photo. And you can request that list members
light a candle for you and your horse on a day of particular hardship for
you; the anniversary of your horse's death, for example. Our support resources
are continually expanding and are always accompanied by the presence of the
most understanding and empathetic group of folks there
is.

For anyone who is not familiar
with an e-mail list, here is a brief description: When you subscribe, you
receive the mail - or posts - written by members of that list. When you choose
to reply to the group mail you receive, or want to start a new topic, your
e-mail is in turn read by the other list members. What results is a wonderful
circle of communication about the subject of the e-mail list. In the
case of Hoofbeats in Heaven's support group, members are able to communicate
with others who understand what it is to love and lose their cherished horse.
Only list members can receive group mail or read it at the list site.
To get started, click on the list link above. If you aren't yet a
registered user of Yahoo's e-mail groups, you will be directed to first fill
out the simple form and then you can sign up to be approved to join
us.
If you have any questions, or
need assistance to join us, don't hesitate to
ask.
Please note that we are not a professional counseling service. If you
are experiencing depression and/or deep despair, we strongly advise you to
seek the help of a professional.
We always strive to keep our list a safe place
where you can trust that the personal and sensitive subject matter of our
list is respected. To that end, we ask that you only join us if you
have a genuine interest in horse loss support. Anyone whose motives
appear suspicious will be questioned and possibly removed from the list so
that the integrity of our group always remains intact.
