Abused,Told I am a F...... Useless Cripple

Wow, first of all please let me say a huge big thank you to all of you for your support your wonderful comments about Ebony and myself, I would so love to reply to every one of you in person, but I think will be here till the New Year, so please can you take this as a thank you to each and every one of you.

Went to the yard and saw that little black face smiling at me, so pleased to see me (well waiting for breakfast lol) and she did not seem at all fazed by what had happened yesterday, so I took my lead from her to get on with life and also your kind words still going round in my head thought if I let this get me down then he has won.

When I got home I did contact the local police station and they were very interested and did take me seriously, not a lot they can do with the few details that I had but a note has been made, so we live in hope. Not that I want anyone else to go through that. He is a very sad and angry man, have got through worse and will again. #Watch this space.......

Thanks again x
 
Remember the respect that you have from people who know you. Remember how Ali felt about you and your horse. Remember you have friends. xxx
 
This is awful, what a vile thing to say! Please don't let it get to you, he is clearly an inadequate human being to treat another like this. Karma s a wonderful thing! Chin up, and a big well done to your lovely horse xxx
 
My husband is a through knee amputee after a motorbike accident, he is back at work and has got his life back as much as he can..... he had his amp 3 years ago I know how hard he has worked.... and I know how scary things can be, don't take any notice of someone who is so rude and ignorant what you have achieved is awesome!!! :)
 
im so sorry this happened to you, i know you must have been really scared and good on you for trying to stay clam, that obvs passed on to your horse and together i think you helped each other.

im glad you reported it tho, what if Ebony hadnt been an angel? what if it had been a young person or someone less experienced, with a spooky pony? This could have ended so badly and the police need to be aware of such incidents in case he does it again to you or someone else

As for your confidence and self esteem, dont let this twonk affect you. Easy to say i know, when someone singles out for insult something you're sensitive about, but look at what you've achieved since your accident and be proud!
Sounds like you coped pretty well actually and for that you should be congratulating yourself

Unfortunately there are always gonna be idiots on the roads and in life in general, and if he drives so recklessly all the time theres a bloody good chance he's gonna end up injured/disabled himself, hopefully without taking anyone else with him.

hope you're ok tho, i bet it really shook you up
 
I haven't read all the replies, but you must know that so many of us on here think you are an amazing strong lady and that we admire you so much. At the end of the day, who cares what some stupid little idiot who hasn't got any manners comes out with. You are worth a million of him..

If someone ever does something like that again, get your mobile out of your pocket, and pretend to film them - shout to them and ask them to speak up for the video that you will be taking to the police.. You're probably not allowed to film them nowadays, but just looking like you are would be enough to send off a coward like that.
 
He would have gotten an earfull and which ever walking aid that happened to be in my hand over his head. What an utter @rseh0le!!!

Honestly you wonder how some people can live with themselves, even at not a kick off thirty my mother would take her hand off my mouth had I ever to shout anything like that at a person with a disability and I would be ashamed and mortified if I ever did angry or not.

He needs lessons taught in the most painful and humiliatingly public way possible :mad:

OP youve done brilliantly please dont let someone like that get you down, the scum.
 
Some people are just plain nasty and impatient i wouldnt take it to heart as he doesnt know what you hve been through,
And the first poast i have read from you i think you are a very strong and inspirational lady! ****** him!
Please dont let them knock your confidence!
Xx
 
I have read this and been too angry on your behalf to post before now.

Very glad to hear you reported it, at least it is logged if this idiot does similar again. If you were on a quiet lane then it is likely he is local to the area so keep your eyes open for him.

As others have said, you are one strong lady and an inspiration to us all, don't let one idiot spoil that for you. xx
 
Awww honey so sorry to hear about this TWIT! Evidently his time was MUCH more precious than yours....;)
But on a more serious note am just really glad that neither you or your girl was hurt by this inconsiderate nutjob, can appreciate it is a knock to the confidence but always remember you were the winner at the end of this because if he did nothing else for you it proved that you and your girl have an excellent bond and relationship, you've obviously worked very hard and have built a good level of trust between you for her to stick with you and stay calm when this idiot was causing so much confusion for her. All his behaviour achieved for him was raising his own blood pressure, for you take it as an opportunity to be extremely proud of both you and your mare xx
 
I'm so sorry. This post has brought tears to my eyes.

I'm so fed up of a good people getting the brunt of evil, nasty people.

People say its a self esteem issue, for some maybe, but I have a majorly low self esteem and I'd never say boo to a goose, just a big, fat excuse for people getting away with being down right bullies.

Ebony sounds like a saint and I hope you won't hang on to this terrible experience for too long.

Keep doing what your doing and I am in ore of your strength.

Xxxxx
 
People like that are not worth wasting brain cells thinking about.

The comfort you can take from this is that your horse is a star, you are strong and he is an very unhappy person who karma will get sooner or later.
 
just as a more positive note if it makes u feel better what he said about u being a cripple is disgusting but at least you can achieve your goals and have done a positive thing in dealing with your injury there isn't a cure for being a p***k and he's stuck with that for life and able bodied or not unfortunately pond life like him are always on the roads when horses are too and he if that's the worst he can come up with pointing out u have a disability well lets hope one day he gets sat down and pointed out all the issues he has. ignore it hun and don't give him a second thought your worth a million of him
 
I haven't got much to add, other than that I agree with nearly all the descriptions of this ****** posted by other. Don't give him any more thought.
Glad you have such a good bond with Ebony - she obviously trusts you so much.
GW, I'll join your posse but think the muckheap is possibly too good. Can we do a dip in a nice icy water trough as well? Or perhaps leave him tethered on some wasteland...
 
Have just seen this post and just skimmed the replies for updates from you, Ebonyallen.

Glad you're feeling more upbeat. His behaviour was inexcusable and I am sorry you felt scared and abused. What a moron!
 
Sad though this was I think it's time by now that you grew a thicker skin and get able to shrug this sort of thing off.
It was a comment, a hurtful comment and other people will make the same sort of comments as that is the society we live in today but the longer you go on being upset about them the hurt will fester. You've lost your leg but that doesn't make you a lesser person so stand up for yourself and shrug them off for the sad people they are.
There is no truer saying than sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me so come on, buck yourself up from this self pitying and get on with your life.
Vanner has it right too in the caption above.

well said Maesfen. Grow a pair of balls and move on. Your leg isn't coming back so stop ruining your life dwelling on it. People who stoop so low as to make negative comments like 'cripple' etc , are usually very unsatisfied with themselves so please, ignore and they will go away :)
 
I wonder how he feels about himself now?

Probably not very proud of himself ;)

It probably hasn't even crossed the lowlife's mind since he made that diabolical remark! Some people are just vile! :mad:

Ebony sounds like a saint, she was really looking after you.

Try not to let this man get to you, it's simply not worth it. Take comfort in the fact that with an attitude like that, he's probably a very sad and lonely individual!
 
Some people are a-holes. And they always will be.

I think you should be congratulated for your work with Ebony. It's obvious you have trained her really well and that she trusts you implicitly to stay so calm while he was revving and being rude and unpleasant to you.

If you got his reg number, or see him again, report him. horrible scrote of a human.

Things like this make me furious.
 
Obviously out of the Shallow End of the Gene Pool did you get his No

No I did not, but I did report it to the police and they have made a note of the incident.

Thank you again for all your replies, I have been contacted by someone with very close connections to one of our para team GB, and it looks like something really good could come out of such a nasty situation. So excited about it, looks like they should be able to help me and Ebony, so one door closes and another one opens.

Again can not thank you enough for all your support, means the world to us both.
