HELP SAVE BABY CHARMANI DAM: ANNABELLE OF ALSHAR: CHACCI SILVER

Hi everyone,

On Wednesday 5th December 2018 at 3.35pm, Charmani the foal was born in Taupo, New Zealand.

Charmani is a beautiful chestnut filly and is an absolute delight.

Unfortunately, her mother Annabelle of Alshar, lost her colostrum two weeks ago leading up to her birth. Charmani has suddenly become very ill and has no immunity because of this and no white blood cells to fight off infection, therefore she is being administered antibiotics.

She is currently being looked after at Matamata equine intensive care, who are doing everything they can with 8 staff on 24 hour care to keep this baby filly alive.

She and Anne are expected to be in care for up to 45 days, which does not come without costs, it is costing 1500 dollars per day.

We are all devastated to see her so unwell as she is very loved by our family and very close to her mother Anne and my younger sister in law Brie - we do not want to lose her.

If anyone can help in anyway, it would be very much appreciated.

Lots of love,

Kayla and the Kersels xx
