Yeah!!!! XC jumping and a little update

[Maclinda]

Last October my mare was diagnosed with injuries to her Deep digital flexor tendons and had significant Navicular changes in both front feet. Had MRI and was basically told it was highly unlikely she would ever be ridden again.

I've went down the route of box rest, elevated heartbars and steroid injections (I know everyone has their own opinions �� )

but yesterday after not seeing a XC fence in over a year, I took her to a charity ride and she jumped everything in sight without even a thought ��������������

At vets today for her six month check up and he's happy, saying "if you were going to break her, yesterday would have been the time".

I know there's every chance she could go lame again, but for the moment, I can finally breath and be happy just riding her ����

Fantastic news, you must be grinning from ear to ear.
My boy is off with a tendon injury, he has done box rest, had a steroid injection and was turned away at the weekend. I'm planning on leaving him now until after the winter, so it's great to hear of one that has come right!
