And, of course, they include many of the people she met over her short life, which she sadly lost to cancer when she was only thirty-eight.Have the box of tissues at the ready, and prepare to both laugh and cry as you read.Ginny would be proud that the Trust continues its work, rescuing and rehabilitating horses, ponies and donkeys.
