Please pray for JerseyWendy

[MikeyTN]

Yes Wendy, get your booties to the ER!!!!!

Taking notes from Wendy and Tab, never go horse back riding. That would of paralized me due to an old injury on my back from years ago.

 

[BirdyMomma]

Wishing you a swift recovery. Hope you are not in too much pain!

 

[mtdoramike]

Oh no, what a way to go through the holidays. I'm praying for you Wendy to get well soon. We miss you already.

I am playing catch up since I have not been on line since Christmas. That was only for one day then it was back at the VA and out of touch with internet.

Wendy, I am glad you are doing better. It seems you should get checked out and make sure nothing serious is going on inside. If anything you would be given better pain meds that don't make you sick. Go in for the drugs. The ER will give you good drugs.

If and when you can please update us with any new developments. Even if they say you are just going to be sore and nothing is broken/sprained. Sending prayers your way for a speedy recovery.

Get better soon!!!!! Drink lots of vegetable juice.. Kale and carrots have a lot of healing power, especially for bones and muscle I'm praying for you.

 

[Crazy]

I seriously hope its nothing fatal! Will definitely be keeping her in my prayers!

 

[BruceV]

Just heard about this a while ago and now I'm done going through the thread. Please get checked out, whether it's at the ER or at your doctor's office. I'm really glad you are ok. And um...you guys that have known each other a long time need to exchange phone numbers. Poor Ant was going crazy!

Just saw this and read the whole thread!
VERY sorry to hear that you had a rather serious accident! Glad to hear the horse did NOT land on you though....
Also glad to hear that you are up and able to move, although SSLLLOOOWWWWLLLY! That has to mean something and that there isn't a break, BUT get it checked out anyway to make sure there isn't a break or fracture!

Glad to hear you are doing better though!

 

[ruffledfeathers]

[getwozzy]

Sending prayers and healing thoughts your way Wendy!! I hope you get checked out just to make sure it's nothing serious Get lots of rest and feel better soon!!

*HUGS!!*

Wendy, it is so nice to hear from you. I hope you get to feeling better soon. I am glad you were not seriously hurt. When I read this thread I was worried. Horses sure can be silly at times.

My kids and I were waiting for hubby in the supermarket carpark one day. It was hot, so we got out of the car and were standing in the shade. As hubby appeared, we all turned to go back to our car, only I caught my foot on one of those stupid bollards they put in carparks to stop idiots from not stopping. I went down like a sack of potatoes, measuring my length on the bitumen, grazing my elbows and squashing my - er - ladybits quite mercilessly. Embarrassed, I leaped to my feet again and went on my way, kids laughing uproariously at me. (Toads!)

I thought nothing of it. It was just a silly fall. Three weeks later, I mentioned it to my doctor and told her the bruising still hadn't quite gone away. She sent me for x-rays and I had broken two of the 'crunchy' bones in my hand (trapezoid and scaphoid). I got a thorough ticking-off from the doctor and was told I could wind up with infections or really bad arthritis through not having the bones set correctly.

The moral of the story is, you can do lots of damage without even realising it. A fall from a horse is serious and you should make sure you haven't done anything that might come against you later on. Now, be a good Wendy and get that checkup! You had all of us worried sick!

PS. What's the first thing you'd say to Tab if she had a bad fall???

 

[TreeBee]

I"m glad your going to be Ok Wendy!!

 

[tab_xo]

PS. What's the first thing you'd say to Tab if she had a bad fall???

Exactly ^^^^

Even when i had a sore back you said to go get xrays And you are in a lot more pain than me!

Please just go get checked out, it will all make us alot happier :09:

 

[faeryphoebe1]

OMG, Wendy. I just now saw this thread and read it with bated breath. I'm so glad you're okay, but please get checked by a doctor to be certain.

 

[strudel]

Yes, please don't assume that all is A-ok because you are mobile. Just make sure, please?

My mom has the same problem with pain meds, she has reactions to opiates. After some trial and error, we found that she can handle Tramadol (ultram), with is a synthetic opiate...kills pain good without all the nasty side effects. (50 mg tablets). They were a miracle drug when she broke her shoulder. Feel better Wendy !

 

[WannaBeAParrot]

Wendy, glad to hear there was improvement when u woke up. I hope u r able to get it all checked out by a medical person, since there can be more going on than meets the eye. I hope that is not so, but pleeeze get checked.

 

[kq_fan]

Oh my gosh!!! I will defiantly pray!!!!!!!

 

[brianlinkles]

WOW! I just got on here after being off the forum for a number of days. I actually had a message from Wendy and answered that first, then saw this! I was holding my breath the whole time reading through this! I am the one that Wendy talked to and I have her number. I was hoping that by the time that I read further that Wendy would jump on which she did!
Wendy, if you are not feeling loads better you should go get checked! Better safe than sorry! I have taken a number of falls from horses and you need to to be careful! I am so happy that you were able to get on here and tell us how you are doing! Look what happens when I don't come on here often, I finally get a minute to check in and scary things happen!
