A trip to the emergency room
Jup, it's true. I went to the emergency room today.
I fell off a BIG horse (1,85+) and I landed right on my bad knee. Typical!
I was in a longe and my teacher wanted us to practice balance exercises. Suddenly the horse gets too close to the fence, which is tied up by some strings, so my foot gets wrapped around it. The horse panics. And I just remember i saw us tear half the roundpen down and then I looked forward and saw it started jumping high up in the air! It's gaits was really weird and intense so I didn't have a chance.
I got shot straight up in the air and landed directly on my bad knee and then my head. I blacked out in some seconds and when I "woke up" agian all my friends and the teacher was standing around me. It was a bit embarrassing because we had a primary school class visiting us. But they got at least a show.
My teacher is very obsessed with pussing people to the edge. He wants almost to see blood and bones through the clothes before he lets you go from class. It's just tough love. He wanted me up on a horse again. But not the same, he wanted me up on a young horse whos not even ridden! Like WTF!
But oh well, the teacher's word is law. So I had to fight my way up on this young Welsh Cob. Fortunately, I didn't fall of. In spite of it was very nervous and full of energy...
Status regarding my knee: It's probably sprained again. I just love my life!
