I’ve been a bit quiet on here lately. Focusing on bringing my boy into regular work has been difficult with the excess load from a working mondays-saturdays 7am-4pm, plus university.
Unfortunately, with all the stress built up in me, it came crashing down, along with my butt. We had a nasty accident last Friday, I couldn’t feel my legs and the hospital was worried I was left paralysed from my injuries.
Fortunately, I recovered from the small injuries and now I am just stuck in bed for the foreseeable. Slowly regaining strength in my legs with the help from crutches.
My family, and my extended family— including my boyfriend and his mum, have been unbelievably supportive and helpful with my recovery. Although it sucks having to ask for help, I can’t do much else.
Sadly, this leaves me in a predicament that I must think about for a while— whether I hang up the boots, sell my boy and walk away from everything— Or continue this journey and risk making the situation worse for myself.
As it is, I struggle to get by, paying a fortune in feed weekly for my horse to survive. However I love him with my entire heart and can’t bring myself to part ways with him.
Thankfully, I have a while to think about what i’d like to do.
