A year ago today the sun was splitting the sky and my friend and I took the horses for a hack. I had no sense of the awfulness to come, no idea that I'd never bring my lovely boy home again as we set out. A year since I brushed him, a year since I tacked him up, a year since I laughed at him jumping and frisking about with excitement. A year since I had to kiss him goodbye for the last time. I thought I'd never find the strength to walk away from his body and I wouldnt have without my YO. Now she is gone too. I hope they have sunshine and daffodils where they are.
Miss you and think of you every day my Milieu xx
 
I feel your pain. The same happened to me 8 years ago and the utter devastation that I saw and experienced that day will live with me forever. I will never be the same again....I now hate flying (god knows what that's about), can't be a passenger in a car and can no where near go as fast on a horse anymore. I can hack alone again thanks to my wonderful cob but speed freaks me out. Take it easy, early days. D
 
You will and it does get easier. I thought I was ok till about two years down the line and a cloud started to lift....that's when I realised I hadn't been ok. You will get past it but it takes time. X
