A few weeks ago I had a fall on my pony Pippa. We were racing through the fields and I lost control, getting thrown off. After being unconscious and losing memory, I am lucky to have come out with only the minimal injuries that I did. I decided to start to write and create blog posts for everyone, first of all because I can't currently ride (for something to do), and secondly to take everyone on this journey of recovery with me.
Scans after scans and multiple nights in hospital showed injuries to my head, 2 broken ribs and 2 broken bones in my hand. Although this is preventing my from riding for a while, I will make sure I'm back to it as soon as I can - and am glad this isn't a life changing difference made.
Even though a key priority for me is getting back on, my main focus is getting better. I need to ensure I am fully recovered before I ride so I prevent any more avoidable and additional damage.
