Some years ago I damaged my back in a fall from my horse after she reared in fright at the sound of a car horn. I was sure at first I wouldn't walk again and sure I would never ride again. I was even prepared to sell her.
Lying in bed it took me a while to realise it hadn't been her fault but mine because I hadn't trained her to ignore those sounds.
After that I longed to get back to riding and I got better quite quickly. Going down to visit her when I came out of hospital was difficult but when she recognised me and nuzzled me I knew I'd ride again.
Three years later and I'm riding and loving every minute.....though I have now made sure she's trained to ignore the idiots who use a car horn to warn me they're coming.
