Saturday Sprain!

 

#1 here. I am back home earlier than planned following a rather frightening accident in which  a crazy horse barrelled right into me at a canter and sent me flying. The end result is a lot of bruising and a badly sprained right ankle. It could have been a lot, lot worse, so I am thankful for that. I managed to drive the two and a half hours home yesterday afternoon before it got too bad. Ollie is with Mr. G and family as there is no way I can walk him. I am RICE-ing, and this too shall pass, but in the interim, the blog will go into hiatus for a few days.

  2. I am so sorry to hear this but glad you weren't more seriously hurt, although your injuries sound very painful. I hope you soon start to feel better, but it might be an idea to have your ankle Xrayed in case anything is broken.

I have a friend who has a riding business, they have 12 horses, mule and donkeys. she has been injured badly twice from one of her horses. when hit by a 1000 pound of horse flesh you are blessed to not have broken bones. prayers for a quick healing

  14. Oh dear- we, too, are soooo glad it wasn't much worse, but we're sure that drive must've been excruciating by the time you got home! Get your rest, get better, and we'll see you when you resume blogging.

  15. Ouch, ouch, ouch!! It's frightening that this could have been worse. It calls for the application of two warm cats. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
