Young Girl Raising Money to Fix Horse's Deformed Jaw


A six-year-old girl is hoping to raise thousands of pounds for an operation on her beloved foal after he was born with a rare condition which left his face disfigured.

Little Maddison Biddlecombe fell in love with Diego despite his peculiar appearance and begged her family not to have him put down.

Despite being advised by other horse owners to have Diego put to sleep, Maddison's mother, 33-year-old Janey Biddlecombe, refused.

She is now hoping to raise money for an operation by an equine dentist which is set to cost �4,000.

Diego was born on May 12 with Wry Nose Syndrome which caused him to have a bent nose and undershot jaw.

Despite initial difficulties he has learnt to suckle from his mother and is happy, healthy and growing well.

Maddison, said: 'Diego is my best friend and I don't care what he looks like, to me his face makes him special.

'He's so lovely. We have a lot of fun playing games and he likes to chase me around the field.

'I love him lots and he gives me kisses and cuddles.

'People shouldn't say he should be put down because of what he looks like, it doesn't matter to me.

'My friends really like him too and we have so much fun feeding him. He's the best horse ever.'

Mrs Biddlecombe, who keeps her horses in Southampton, Hants, sought advice online from others on the New Forest Equine Directory forum and was shocked by some responses.

She said: 'I asked for help and advice but some people have been unkind and told me to put him to sleep.

'Maybe it's an easy way out but not for me. I don't agree with putting him to sleep just because he looks different.

'It was a struggle the day after he was born but he's come on leaps and bounds and is doing fantastically.

'Maddison adores Diego and has formed a great bond with him. They have even been found cuddled up together asleep in the field in the sun. He certainly knows he's loved.

'He's a fighter and I am willing to do everything and anything for him - whatever it takes to make sure he has a happy, normal life.

'When he's bombing around the field he's so happy and there's no way I could put him down - not unless he's suffering, but not just because he looks different.'

Mrs Biddlecombe, of Poole, Dorset, said her mother had been a great help as Diego is kept in her field.

She said the RSPCA were happy with Diego but accepted that the colt could have problems when he starts grazing.

She said she hoped any difficulties could be cured by surgery and the family would be devastated if they had to have him put down.

Mrs Biddlecombe added: 'We would be heartbroken but we will do all we can for him and let him know he was loved and cuddled and kissed.'

Wry Nose Syndrome causes the upper and lower jaw of a horse to grow to one side.

Woman Wins Millions From Lottery For 4th Time

Photobucket

Once, twice, three times a Texas lottery millionaire - now it's four. Joan R. Ginther, a native of Bishop, Texas, made her fourth appearance on Monday at lottery headquarters in Austin to collect seven figures, lottery officials said. Ginther, 63, won $10 million, the top prize in Texas Lottery's $140,000,000 Extreme Payout scratch-off ticket she bought for $50, pushing her total wins to $20.4 million.

It was her third time to win on a ticket from a Bishop store, and second one at the Times Market there. "This is a very lucky store," said Bob Solis, store manager. Store owner Sun Bae is the one with the lucky hand, Solis said. "Sun sold both the winning tickets to the woman."

The store, which sells about 1,000 lottery tickets daily, now is eligible to receive a bonus of $10,000 for the second time. In 1993 Ginther first won a $5.4 million share of an $11 million Lotto Texas jackpot for a ticket bought in Bishop. She opted for annual payments of $270,000 (excluding tax charges) for 19 years. The cost of her lottery ticket could not be determined.

On year 13, while visiting Bishop to care for her father in 2006, Ginther won the top prize of $2 million in the Holiday Millionaire game thanks to a $30 scratch-off ticket. Ginther requested a lump-sum payment of about $1.5 million, after the 25 percent taken by the commission for taxes. In 2008, she collected a $3 million prize in Millions and Millions, another scratch-off, at the same Times Market where she won this week. That scratch-off ticket's cost also was not reported.

JOKE:The captain of a Syrian Air Force plane sends a mayday

fly,plane,jet,

The captain of a Syrian Air Force transport flying over the Mediterranean sends out a MAYDAY message:

"This is Syrian Air Force # 174 announcing we have lost one engine and want to land at any airport in the Middle East other than Israel!"

No answer.

A while later he announces, "This is Syrian Air Force # 174 again. We have now lost two engines and need to land at any airport in the Middle East other than Israel!"

Silence.

A short while later the captain announces, "This is Syrian Air Force #174. We are desperate. We have now lost THREE engines an urgently ask permission to land at any airport in the Middle East other than Israel!"

Still no answer.

Finally the captain calls out, "Help! This is Syrian Air Force #174. We have only one engine left and it is rapidly failing. Unless we can land we are going to crash. We need permission to land at ANY airport in the Middle East INCLUDING Israel!"

Shortly thereafter, a voice is heard in the Syrian cockpit: "Shalom Syrian Air Force # 174. This is Tel Aviv approach control. We would like to help."

"Allah is praised," says the Syrian pilot. "Please give me instructions."

"Do you speak Hebrew?"

JOKE: A Republican and a Democrat were walking down the street

A Republican and a Democrat were walking down the street when they came to a homeless person. The Republican gave the homeless person his business card and told him to come to his business for a job. He then took twenty dollars out of his pocket and gave it to the homeless person.

The Democrat was very impressed, and when they came to another homeless person, he decided to help. He walked over to the homeless person and gave him directions to the welfare office. He then reached into the Republican's pocket and gave the homeless person fifty dollars.

JOKE: Two great white sharks, swimming in the ocean, spied a ship in distress

Two great white sharks, swimming in the ocean, spied a ship in distress.

"Follow me, son," the father shark said to the son shark and they swam to the ship.

"First we swim around them a few times with just the tip of our fins showing." And they did.

"Well done, son! Now we swim around them a few times with all of our fins showing." And they did.

"Now we eat everybody." And they did. When they were both gorged, the son asked, "Dad, why didn't we just eat them all at first? Why did we swim around and around them?"

His wise father replied, "Because they taste better without the shit inside!"
