I've been reading them as they've been posted (email), and its really helped me feel better. Not alone. Not crazy for being a bit shaken up. Knee is feeling much better, but still not 100%. Unfortunately no trainer rides due to rain, but hopefully we'll get things together this weekend.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15925650148327532110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371838582463916633.post-61213950823485471042012-11-29T14:17:47.821-08:002012-11-29T14:17:47.821-08:00If it's any consolation, you looked AWESOME th...If it's any consolation, you looked AWESOME the day before. :) That's the biggest I've ever seen you two jump and you look great together. <br /><br />Green moments are the worst. It is so incredibly hard to bring along a young horse, especially when you're trying to build your own confidence from your last one. :( I'm sure Hemie will recover just fine. Good on you for having Laurie jump him. I'd maybe give her another ride or two while you heal up just to get the wiggles out. <br /><br />You can do this. It was just bad luck.

I have no recollection of the entire day after I fell off the mounting block, apparently I drove myself to the ER, got checked out, and called a family member to come pick me up. I had three surgeries to fix all the damage and three years later am now finally getting back to the normal life that I had before my injury. <br /><br />ACL tears are very common in women, and while you don't really need your ACL, I would still get your knee checked to make sure you didn't damage anything.

It takes so much time to rebuild confidence and even longer if you get hurt in the tumble. Take a deep breath, take your time, and have someone else ride him if that will rebuild your confidence.<br /><br />Sydney did some wild stuff tonight and ALMOST dumped me - not sure how I stayed on. it rattled me a bit for sure. Feel better soon (body and heart).<br /><br />KarenBakersfield Dressagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05571487914424695283noreply@blogger.com
