Ended up hospitalized

Boy. You are lucky.
As for why the horse did what she did. Hmm. Horses can be funny that way. But I agree with you. I would change mounts.
I have a nice ten year old mare I'm riding now. She is still green despite her age. LOL But we are working on it.
Thats great that your DH and the friends are pitching in for you.
Get well soon and get back in the saddle.

Yeah, I don't feel lucky even though I know I am.

Go figure.

The trail is a common one we've taken. Rock has experienced it before. I think she doesn't respect me even though I've been consistent. (She has tried being pushy with me despite my refusals to allow her to disrespect). I've never let her win arguments except on the 15th, when I was too injured. One thing that saved my life -- and those who want to know, pay attention NOW-- is that I was wearing a helmet. Yes, I have a concussion with a helmet, but I would've been dead without one.

Moral of the story: wear a helmet!

Yes, I agree. I always wear my helmet.
I hope you find yourself that horse that makes riding an enjoyment again rather than a tug o war of wills

Hope you are feeling better......

 

[Pearce Pastures]

Holy smokes, I am so sorry and very glad that you are recovering. That is so scary.

 

[GLENMAR]

I would re-home that horse. She sounds unsafe. Glad you came out OK.

 

[Fluffygal]

Sorry to hear about your accident but glad that you are recovering.

Hope you continue on your road to recovery and bounce back soon.

Wow what a ride! Glad you are on the mend. Sounded scary.

I suspect it was, but given I can't remember it, it's probably for the best. Today I went to the Farmer's Market and got food. My DH went with me to help bring the food home. I did okay walking but toward the end, I was bone-weary. Still, it was good to do something that was somewhat normal.

My DH has been complaining about my stubbornness and insistence to do things on my own. He admit though he'd rather hold me back than push me though.

Poor you. I would hate the idea of having to lay around. I wouldn't mind a forced vacation but not one that made me lay around.
I'm glad your DH is helping to keep you down but sure hope you will be up and around soon.

I spent one weekend sitting on the couch trying to get my foot to heal (I have a naroma) and by the end of Sunday I was ready to kill anyone who came into the living room.

Hope you have some good books!

Speedy recovery!
