Life truly happens while making other plans. 
The last few days i suddenly noticed that Maddy had very large nipples and her belly had gotten really big in a very short amount of time. I called the vet and told her i thought Maddy might be pregnant after all. She had been given abortion injections, but after Ricardo's castration he was still fertile for 6 weeks and my only guess is that there might have been a secret encounter during that time where she escaped from her meadow into his and back to hers again before i even noticed.
Anyway ... yesterday was the day ... she gave birth to 3 piglets. But now life's heartbreaking reality is that Maddy when she was born was rejected by her mother and had to be fed with the bottle. So Maddy never experienced maternal love. 💔 So it didn't really come as a big surprise that she wasn't able to feel maternal love for her babies. 💔 Two of them didn't survive: one boy was probably crushed under her or George's weight because he was found in the same little stable as where Maddy and George were sleeping under a pile of straw. 😔 In a second little stable was a little girl found dead, probably because of the cold. 🥺 And then in a third little house, my husband found a teeny tiny little piglet, still alive, but barely. He brought her in and immediately put her in a blanket and above the heating. The only way my husband noticed that Maddy had given birth is because Ricardo was building nests for the babies. Maddy was sleeping next to George and acted as nothing had happened. It is heartbreaking, because we know it's not her fault. She just doesn't know how to love since she was never loved herself. 💔
So now my husband and i are feeding this little girl every two hours. She is so so small, yet so fierce ... it's amazing. We will do everything in our power to make sure we pull her through because she has shown us what a fighter she is. So if you all could just send her the best of vibes and hopes so she can live to experience the fresh wet grass under her paws, she can dig and look for plant roots, she can enjoy a siesta in the sun and the divine feeling of relaxation when she gets belly rubs.
Please meet little Lana. 🖤🐷🖤
