    It pained me to see Risey nickering/soft whinny to Uniek at the beginning and furthermore, she was looking intently at him. These two brought me to this channel, I stayed because of how well the horses were treated by Yvonne, Rein and Crew. Uniek was such a good mother, good leader, good friend, good sister and good horse in general. Her stoicism mirrors Yvonne, they are without a doubt soulmates to me. R.I.P Queen.

    I started watching when Risey was adopted by Queen 👑Uniek. I fell in love with her because of her willingness to take a baby to her udder and her heart as if it were her own. I am in tears now because she is gone. But never forgotten. She is in heaven. Corralle is Belle's surrogate mother, in my heart never the true mother. But I thank her for having Uniek's baby. I want to hug you, Yvonne. I want to cry with you. I wish I could send money, but, I am an old woman, alone. I send you love and prayers that things will turn around and be good in the future. Starting with Princess Belle. ♥🙏

    The first time I saw the beautiful Uniek was when she gave birth to Star who unfortunately did not survive. Then a tiny Rising Star came into her life and we all fell in love with the beautiful bond formed by the mom who had lost her foal and the baby who didn't have a mom. Queen Uniek you are very special and now you run free in horse heaven. I love you, beauty

She was a special horse, and not only your friend, but family. I will continue to pray for you until the pain eases up. I believe she is watching over you, and will greet you when you go to Heaven ❤❤❤

    Losing Uniek - 😢.
    But, Yvonne, your “bad luck” has also resulted in good things.
    You lost Star, but gained Risey. You fell and yet you survived to live and love your close family as well as your world-wide family. You were wise to create Uniek’s Belle via Coralle to carry on Uniek’s uniqueness. The glimpse of Belle that we’ve seen shows she has her mem’s conformation. She looks special already!
    All this and more, due to your wisdom and strength.
    An American saying:
    “If life gives you lemons, make lemonade.”
    Keep making lemonade, Yvonne!! ❤

    Uniek was a wonderful horse. Don’t look on it as bad luck , think about how lucky you were to have her in your life, how lucky she played a part in fur filling your dreams of a horse stable. Lucky that she played a part in helping you recover from your accident. Lucky that she brought Risey into your life. Lucky that she found you and you gave her a wonderful life and made friends all over the world. RIP Uniek we all loved you. Gone too soon but never forgotten 😢

      I think what you are saying is true. But it is hard to look at it that way when you are still grieving another loss. But Yvonne is strong and one day she will be able to smile when she thinks of Uniek instead of tearing up. Those are the stages we go through when we lose someone dear to us. I smile more now when I think of my parents, for instance, but sometimes I still cry. That is the way it is. Belle is such a blessing, as is Risey even with his issues. Circle of life.

      It’s important that Yvonne expresses her true thoughts and feelings in response to her grief. And it’s important for us to listen to her as she moves from grief to remembrance and healing. No one should tell her how to feel, or how to look at things in the direct aftermath. She needed to speak her truth.
      Yvonne is such a resilient person. She’s shown that for years, especially after her accident.

She brought joy and awe to you and thousands of people over the years! You did everything you could to make every minute of her life as great as possible for her.
    All of these words are not able to help in grieve, nevertheless she will live on in our memories, in the videos you made, in her foals, in Belle and Risey.

    Dear Yvonne, there is no shame in mourning one of your best friends. We all I imagine will mourn the loss of Uniek for a while, then we can move on to remembering the joy she brought to all of us. I am so glad she was able to be there when her foal was born. I am sure if anyone can know that her foal will be loved as she would have it is Uniek. She took an orphan to herself and loved him as his own mother would have, and Risey is a sweet boy who benefitted from Unieks care when he was in need. To me Uniek will always be the "Queen" of the herd. You did right by Uniek and I am sure she is now happy and grazing in a beautiful sunny field. Much love to you and all at Stal H and Stal G.

      I agreed. With the Queen resting on the ground, not being herself. She knew, I will never forget her standing attentively and looking toward Risey Stal. Although Risey was older, She wanted to see and watch over the most important person in her life for the last time, her boy. Also I will never forget Risey somberly standing backwards in his stal.There's no doubt their bond was a special bond, Mother and Child.Risey Whinny voice at the beginning tells me he knew his Mom was very ill. He was sad and said good bye.

    The image of Uniek's empty stall was haunting.
    Risey stood turned looking away, Coralle never left Belle's side and Reintje and Saly appeared so subdued. In their own way they know it is different now.
    Even when in pain, Uniek was such a majestic beauty! She made an impact on so many of us around the world. She will not be forgotten by this virtual herd, or by those who saw her accept Risey as her own.
    Yvonne, yes please post all of the videos you have. We will continue to watch - enjoying the antics at the Stals, to cheer for Risey and to watch Belle grow. Uniek brought us here, after all.
    Rest easy now, Queen Uniek. Rest easy.

    The pain of losing Uniek is in proportion to the great joy she brought you, your family, friends and your online herd. It is a comfort that we can enjoy the many videos of Uniek--where her personality and beauty continue to shine--and it's a huge gift to have her descendants including the amazing Risey and Belle.

    Yvonne, I cried along with you. How many times I stood at where my Nikita slept. I kept her bed where it was till I was ready to move and put it up. In my hallway there is a memorial of her. I made a shadow box with some of her things in it. My girlfriend made a picture for me to keep beside her cremains and shadowbox. Grief has no timeline, Nikita has been gone since May 2005 and I still cry. Queen Uniek will be forever with you because of Belle and Risey. I was pleased to see you smile because I smiled when you said you had Uniek in the back of your vehicle. You will have smiles and tears as you remember her in your private moments. Funny about the rain, because the day my dad was to be buried it was raining terribly and as the time came to go to the cemetery the Heavens cleared and the sun came out and it was beautiful..ty for this memory of my daddy. Never forget you have a human herd thats here for you and there is nothing we will not hesitate to do for you..please ask, as there is never anything wrong with asking. Thank you for TikToc, Instagram, TH-cam. We love you and the others at Stal H. I love forward to seeing Belle, aka little Uniek grow and become who she is meant to be. Continued prayers as always for you physically and emotionally..Prayers for our Prince, Rising Star and boss Rein and Glendy.

      That's beautiful, I recall of an episode I watched, and recently rewatched, where it was an urgent case, the pregnancy went fine, the placenta looked fine. But the next morning they found she had passed. And her foal needed a foster momma for feeding. They had found a horse who had just lost her foal. They put the mare's urine and fecies on the foal to make her smell familiar. To have less of a chance to reject the foal. And thankfully she accepted it eating off her. And a few weeks later they were inseparable. It's like fate for sure. Like Queen would have been for that foal. So beautiful. I'm sure she was an incredible horse ❣️

      That video was AWESOME, wasn't it? Its a rare gem! 💎 I have NEVER seen a foster mare SO excited to see a foal!
      I worked with Miniature horses, Egyptian Arabians, and Thoroughbreds.
      I was asked to look for any visible illness or injuries, any odd behavior, or illness, and document the breeding cycles of the mares, among other things. I went to college for veterinarian technology (vet tech,) NOT a vet.
      I've always loved horses, and I have a lot of equine knowledge. I've been at quite a few foalings. I've watched a lot of YT videos too! 😂
      You might want to change the spelling to "accepted" instead of "excepted." The voice to text does that to me a lot. I have to remember to Uber enunciate. You see what I mean? Over turned into Uber! LOL! 😂

    Uniek fan Goengamieden, 2006-2024
    Darling Uniek, I live on another continent and don’t understand how I have so much love for a horse I have never met and, sadly, will never meet. I first saw you when you were struggling to give birth to Star. You were desperately trying to lick life into him, but it was not to be. It was a dark time, but in the morning the sun came out with the arrival of a skinny little foal whose mother had died. I’ll never forget your joyous whinny and the happy dance you did when you first saw Rising Star. It was truly love at first sight for you and for me, too. That was the day I fell in love with you and Friesian horses.
    I watched as you tenderly raised Rising Star and saw him grow up to be the magnificent horse he is today. Over the years you charmed me with your sassiness, your imperiousness, your love of food (especially pellets, apples and carrots), and your stunning beauty. The tender greeting you gave Greg Hammer when he visited, and your enduring love for Yvonne were impressive. You took me riding through the woods and along the beach. We splashed in pools, trotted alongside canals, and relaxed in the meadow. It was a magnificent reign which came to an unexpected and tragic end. Tears are still flowing, but time and Belle will ease the loss we all feel. Rest in peace beloved Queen. You have gone, but your memory will live in our hearts forever.👑❤️🇨🇦❤️

You know what? I see Uniek in Belle. Belle has Uniek's big beautiful eyes. I always could identify Uniek by her beautiful eyes! I think Belle is our next Queen when she becomes an adult. Risey will also always be Uniek's little Prince for however long he lives on earth. He really has a great determination, which he must have learned from Uniek. He really was her little boy even if not biological and after he was weaned, he seems to continue that Uniek royal essence. I will enjoy seeing Risey and Belle continue their beautiful lives! ❤❤❤

    Touching video, I have been following the story of Queen Uniek since her arrival and also of the wonderful Rising Star when he arrived to be her adopted son Uniek, a super queen mother. I can't say that I didn't suffer seeing what happened, I love horses. My condolences

    Goidbye, My Queen. You saved my life. I don't know what would have happened if I hadn't picked up my phone and randomly saw you make Risey your own. It was the darkest day of my life and you lifted me up. Each day I looked forward to seeing you. Thank you for that. Thank you, Yvonne for being the amazing woman you are. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You both saved me. I'm still here because of you and our Queen. Bella is so beautiful and I see hope and strength in her eyes.

      I hope life continues to improve for you, Renee. Videos of horses saw me through the Pandemic, self-isolating & then a host of respiratory disorders. Queen Uniek's joy at seeing Risey has never ceased to inspire me, as has Yvonne's resilience. We press on, honouring those who touch our lives along the way. Love to all horse lovers everywhere and especially to those of us who aren't physically and/or emotionally well enough to go out there and ride❤.

I then found this video, and it was so very sad to see - my heart aches for you as your love for her and all of the beautiful horses shine through and reach out through the screen to the viewers. Thank you for sharing your life and journey with these beautiful horses with us all as it brings love and warmth into the world. From, a new subscriber.

    You don’t have bad luck, you are blessed. You have a loyal husband & healthy children. You have viewers who helped you buy Uniek for yourself & cover all her needs. When Uniek lost her foal, there was a miracle foal that she loved as her own. You had an accident & fell into a coma but you woke up! You recovered more than anyone expected. You run your own stables & people care deeply about your life. Though Rising Star has a concerning diagnosis, he is beautiful & strong now. Uniek’s foal transfer worked perfectly & you received a beautiful princess before the Queen left. There are so many blessings for you! I am so sorry for your loss. 💔 I hope you can take some comfort from the 2 beautiful babies she left in your care. One boy, the child of her heart & one girl, the child of her blood. I know Uniek was loved & cared for from the day you met to the day she left. I hope this is the last heartbreak for you for years to come 🫂

      I love the points you're making; Yvonne has a lot of positives to support her through the grieving process and it's good to recognise that.
      However, she undoubtedly has experienced some hellishly bad luck and denying that could leave her feeling unseen in her pain and less able to be open about when she's struggling.
      I'd like to be really clear that I'm not scolding you; you made some beautiful and heartwarming points; I just wanted to point out an element that may be less helpful, however innocently put 💚
