    Hey guys! We will explain exactly what EPM is in our next “Oliver Video” until then you can go check out this video of our stallion, Bob. Who, unfortunately contracted EPM from a local feed store (that got shut down for contaminated livestock feed) ua-cam.com/video/x9PB5xAQZKI/v-deo.html

      Yes, I watched Bob and his EPM story. JR was correct about all the vermin around that feed, where you picked Oliver up from. Didn’t Bob catch it from possum’s ❓🤔💜 Good to see Oliver is on the right road to recovery. I was shocked about his red cell being down & close to needing a blood transfusion 😪🐨🐨🦘

      It's not quite so common a condition in Canada...no possums most places! But it's definitely a concern for horses shipping for breeding and showing and ending up here. Lucky they've been studying EPM and have treatments for it. Marquis(?) is available now for use in this country thank goodness! Again, good luck for the best result with little Oliver! Feed that boy!

      Good, I just looked it up and was thinking that he could have picked this up from the unhealthy envrioment he was living in? This makes me sad for all of the other horses that were on the farm with Oliver. I don't know anything about EPM though. God Bless you good folks for helping this georgous baby and to all who have contributed to his care. I hope he can make a full recovery. He seems like such a loving boy. Just a shame how some people treat animals.

I don’t think he would have lasted another day. If you had not gone & picked him up when you did. God is on our side.

      Same here..when JR asked if the epm was the cause of his anaemia and the vet said no..pure starvation..I just broke into little pieces..and he is in pain and feeling so darn crappy but ge is still such a gentle fellow..when let off in the field he just kept walking to JR..he knows he saved his life..they have that bond already ..from day 1..I hope and pray they've caught this disease early enough to get him better..think of the possibilities of JR together with Oliver..he adores his human saviour.. he trusts him so much..poor bugger must feel so bad but his temperament is still 100% cool dude ..🇬🇧🐑✝️🙏🐎👍👏👏🇺🇸

    Veterinarians are heros in my eyes. They have higher than average suicide rates and I can understand why. Be kind to your vet and appreciate that they give so much and often get asked for FREE or reduced rate services. They often do volunteer spay and neuter in addition to being busy busy busy. They see alot of death and sad humans. We have a shortage of veterinarians in California and I can understand why. It is often a thankless job, although not in Olivers case!! Thank Goodness! Get well Oliver xo

    That baby was neglected and abused. I think all of us would love to see the original owner brought up on charges, because his condition could easily have been mitigated if she’d bothered to give him the kind of care and treatment he needed, before things got this bad.
    Thank you, JR and the rest of your family, for helping Oliver, and for giving him a new chance at life. I cannot wait to see him improve over the coming weeks and months, and regain the health he was cheated out of so early in his life.

    Oliver, this lovable, special, strong being. As sick as he is he has survived all these Ordeals, Auctions, the trips there and his homecoming over many many hours in the van, I am speechless at so much strength. Maybe he knew he was going into the best hands and that it was his last chance. You can already see that his look is more alive and his trust in people, after all he had to experience, is incredible.

  • @karenduncan6004

    As bad as his condition is, it's a wonder Oliver didn't have an infection of any kind (not counting the EPM and parasite load, of course). What a relief that he doesn't seem to have any organ damage!
    That poor baby has suffered so much in his short life, all from sheer neglect. His former owner should not be allowed to have any animals at all.
    Oliver is such a sweet horse, and clearly he loves and trusts you folks already. He doesn't seem to have a mean bone in his body. When he feels better (God willing!), his personality is just going to bloom.
    Again I am so thankful that you good folks have him now. You are exactly who he needs! After your experience with Bob, you even know how to deal with his EPM.
    God bless you!

God bless your family as Neurology issues are not for the light at heart. It can be grueling work for the afflicted to overcome. Here is a prayer for complete recovery and Oliver is in the 30 percentile. Busy days so far so please relax for awhile. And let the meds do its work. We should be furious that the owner refused your bid for him. Sounds like if they did not get what they want the decision to let a horse die, instead, is pride filled greed and could be charged as neglect.

    Embarrassingly I had to look up EPM in horses but I'm grateful it doesn't sound fatal... I've been so scared Oliver had something beyond help. While his health isn't great right now, it's expected under the conditions he was in. Thank God that is now in his past and he can only get better from now on ❤️❤️❤️

    • @barbaravecchio5600

    Good news! White blood cell count ok, and no heart murmur. Also the swelling 'down below' can be dealt with by feeding, also no bean in the sheath. I think those are all very positive things for Oliver's health to build upon, and did I hear that he's not infectious? If so, that must be a weight off your mind. I can't believe how invested I am in this young horse!! Just thought you might like to know, when I was at church yesterday and quietly praying for you all, and your farm and young Oliver, I really got the sense that your farm is completely covered in prayer! It was a good feeling, very complete and very secure! There are lots of people sending up those prayers, and I, and I'm sure others, have been asking the Lord to touch Oliver and heal him. He is a special horse, and what I have really noticed all along is his patience and humility, even though he is feeling very unwell, and probably has been for much of his life. Of course, it might just be that he's got little energy at the moment - we shall have to see! But there is something about him that has drawn us all together! Love to you all from England, and have a good week on the farm! 🥰📿🐴❤‍🩹🧔👩🏡🐴🐎🐎🌱🌳🌷🥀🍏🍏🍏😘

    EPM is bad news, but some horses can, with the right medication and vet care, do very well. Skydog Sanctuary in Oregon,has a very sweet gray mare named Dakoda, who came to them with painful urine scald caused by EPM neurological issues. She was treated with the appropriate meds, and became able to urinate normally. She is a sweet, calm, and gentle horse who helps a blind horse who is in with her. They are great friends. Two other great horses, Lily and Rosa (Rosa is also blind) are in with them. Beautiful Lily had a severe autoimmune disease that almost killed her, but she looks terrific now and is doing well. Probably some of you horse lovers on this channel are already familiar with Skydog. If not, you might want to look them up. Anyway, I hope that Oliver does as well as Dakoda with the EPM treatments!!!!!!

    I wish we could save all the horses from that ugly place, I wish they were all there with you and the vet - in experienced and caring hands. Look at Oliver's eyes following you and the glancing over at the camera person and looking at the young lady who was petting his nose - he has the most gentle look - I'm just horrified that he was ever with people that weren't you and how he might have been treated previously.
