Very bad day for me.
On thusday morning I was training with my horse, like usual.
Unforntunatly for me, I was not paying enough attention at what I was doing.
The result is that I badly missed my approach to an obstacle and the horse misunderstood me and stopped cold just in front of it.
I did not stop with the horse.
Thus, I flew over and landed on my left side. Hard!!
results:
10, I mean 10, broken ribs
One slightly punctured lung
The D1 vertrebrae essentialy exploded
two broken toes.....
the docs spent the all morning fixing me and clearing the water an blood I had in my left lung.
For the ribs there is nothing much to do as well as for the foot where they just linked together the two toes in between two small pieces of wood.
The most dangerous was the lung since it could 'collapse' on itself meaning a serious and long operation to 're build' it.
This risk wil be canceled by next sunday.
The worst part are the ribs! Oh man, this is not a degree of pain one wants to experience I have to remain sitted on a special armchair day and night for the next 15 days!! plus 5mg of pure Morphine shots every 6 hours.
the pains stops almost immediatly after the shot but start building up slowly till the next shot.
I did not want to stay in the hospital, I signed a documents yesterday night and they sent me home, together with my friend 'the special armchair' and a nurse who stays there for a few days.
By the way, the horse is perfectly fine.
I just wanted to let you know that for the next few weeks I will spend quiet a lot of time with you here since the only thing I can really do is to push the 'armchair' to my office at home and then pushing it back to the living room.
I am in a terrible mood since I can't even blame my horse, it was my mistake and I can't even slap my face because it's hurts to much
