Ok, so some of you may remember me asking for any info that any of you had on stem cell treatment? My horse Jack had his op 2 1/2 weeks ago. He had stem cell treatment and a bursoscopy, this is where they scrape away all the torn tendon fibres! Anyway, bandage and stictches came out last week, and it's looking good! v little heat and swelling there. He's certainly putting weight on it, and we've started walking. 10 mins a day last week, 20 mins a day this week, then 30 mins from next week. He goes on the walker for most of this, and then I do a little in the evening, along our long concrete drive, he's been OK and not to silly!
He's goes back 1 week on Tues for his follow up scan, and if all OK I can start riding him for 40 mins a day!!! hurray -haven't got on him since beginning of April, so it's gonna be nearly 6 months to the day - am so excited! He's had his back checked, am gonna get his saddle checked and then we're away! Got 2 months of just walking, but you know what I just don't care - I'll be back riding him! will keep you all posted on his progress.......................
