Adam Sheraston

Yes I have! I think he is largely based in Spain or somewhere now. I met him about 10 years ago via another horsey website which was asking for volunteers to have a free "whispering" reading by Adam which would be filmed for a documentary about him. My horse was accepted (I was asked to pay just £5 as a contribution to his petrol costs - he was doing 3 or 4 of us that day in the NW of England) but then Adam contacted me to say the film crew were coming to him on a different week, but he would still honour the arrangement. My horse has a very unusual condition with absolutely no visible symptoms. She was totally relaxed as soon as he walked into her stable, which was unusual for her as she is wary of strange men, and I can honestly say Adam never actually touched her at all apart from giving her forehead a friendly rub before he started. I can't say he particularly picked up her main problem (it doesn't manifest in the same part of her body that causes it) but did identify a possible problem in her throat (she has had a couple of bouts of choke in the past) but crucially, did tell me that her left knee in particular was showing signs of considerable wear and tear. About 2 years after that she started showing classic signs of arthritis and was on-off lame on her left leg. The vet subsequently diagnosed advanced arthritis. These days it has more knobbles than my knuckles, but then was still smooth and completely normal to look at. The weirdest bit of the whole event (it took about 2 hours as I remember) was that Adam said to me "what is it with X (a TV programme from the 1970s)? " I said it was unlikely that my horse had been watching it! However I then did admit that I'd always loved watching it as a kid and just the previous weekend had purposefully stayed in to watch a much later film of it with most of the original cast. And with that he went off to see his last case of the day. If he was a fake, then my God he worked hard as he wasn't going to finish before 9pm that night. I know he used to help a local horse rescue centre with their problem cases for free. I don't know if he still does the communication aspect to be honest, but he certainly has a lovely way with horses and I never felt I was being given "the patter" or that he was saying things to try to impress me. Oh yes, and he was very good looking too :)
