Was chatting about this on the yard yesterday. I've cheerfully jumped, schooled, hacked out etc with a variety of illnesses, concussion, the lot. One of the kids on the yard has been caring for her pony and doing groundwork again with a broken hand, is just allowed on again and despite it being painful due to lack of use, is grittily determined to keep at it. I can remember feeling so ill I could barely stand on many occasions, yet still managing to get my two cared for by myself, before going home and collapsing. And I'm sure most of you reading this could recount many similar stories!
By comparison, my 'normal' friends might cancel a day out because they've got a cold, or are a bit tired, or... And I'm sometimes left thinking 'what a wuss!'
So what makes us all harder and more resilient?
