Hope she's better and home soon

Oh Jeez - she looks in pain!!! I've done two ribs on each side at separate times and me collar bone and it's no picnic - without the horse on top for good measure!

Is it just me or hasn't there been a lot of falls in eventing again recently? Precisely why I packed it in! I don't have a death-wish!

Terrible fall but surprised that no one has commented on the death of a 22yo sub editor of C&T Rider magazine being killed in a freak accident - so sad for the family.

Hope LF gets well soon. Painful but she was lucky.
Mcnaughty- until your post i hadn't seen that story how very tragic for the family.
And it could so easily have been a different story for both the above riders.

horrible accident, looking at their website looks like she is making a really good recovery.

well could have been worse at least the bones will heal in time. I've fallen off just bruising my ribs before and that was bad so fractured ribs I imagine would be worse.
