Cracked vertebrae from a fall

[Christa Bruning]

I fell off my horse jumping and cracked 3 vertebrae in my back. To make things worse, my dad refused me medical care. This happened in 2017.

Okay... so has this just been diagnosed? What is the prognosis now?

I am sorry that you have had a serious injury. Do you think your dad knew how serious it was when he refused you medical care?

Are you in this country (only asking as it is an unusual phrase to use for UK)? Are you in an area where medical care is costly?

You've put 3 matching posts in 3 boards about an accident 2/3 years ago basically just criticising your dad. If you search the forums you'll find that many riders break their back - I broke L2 & L3 in 2006 - spine pinned, 6 months in hospital etc. Even if you are under 16 you have a right to see Doctor in the UK (Not sure if you are in the UK). Why not go see your GP?

I cracked a vertebrae at 16 I was working ( with horses ) it hurt a lot in time it wore off .
The site of the break was noticed when I broke another more than thirty years later .
if you functioning and fine I would let it go .
