Mike,
Having known the Cordrays (and being able to call them "Aunt Jen & Uncle Dan" ;) We have shared many memories. Some of Jeff and some of other family members that have passed before I could remember, but never have I heard the story of Jeff and Jenny the way you have been able to put into words. You could not have nailed it any better than you have. I have read your work before, but never have I been so touched on so many levels than I was while reading this story. You will have forever helped me put my life into prospective with not only my family, but my dear twin sister. THANK YOU. |

Such an amazing story that brought back alot of memories and tears. I am so thankful that Obie was brought into Jenny's life and am proud of the effort and progress she has made with this beautiful horse. Mike's story depicts perfectly the struggles of a powerful mental disorder that effects so many lives and the healing powers of a horse. Thanks for writing such a wonderful story.

I've read this commentary three times now. I needed to do this --- to carefully read each word and line to better feel and understand, the effect of Obie & Obie's birth experience on Jenny, & the connection between Obie and Jeff. Dan's purchase at the horse auction indeed was a wonderful thing! |

Sad and sweet. Thank you, Jenny, for sharing your story and to you, Mike, for relaying it in such wonderful prose.

A great skill, Mike, in bringing this heart-rending story together. In knowing the background, I can understand the connection and am happy that Jenny has shared her introspection with others through your column.

Thanks for writing this story - very inspirational and moving - I'd heard the story from Dan J, but I didn't understand the connection until reading in this column.
