Go Emily! 
Is there a time when they will do an assessment of how far she’s come as of that date, and give more of a prognosis? Or is that not possible with her type of injury?
Thanks Doodlebug1. Although not many people are responding, this thread has over 2,500 views since it was started about 5 days ago. People are following your updates about Emily.
Yes, thanks Doodlebug1 - I have been checking this thread every day for updates!
I’m not sure. I’m literally copying and pasting these from Polly Stockton Facebook. She is a 4* rider, based near (and good friends with) Emily. I know Polly but I don’t know Emily directly.
There has been no update today, but polly did warn she was away for the weekend. I’ll post the next update as soon as I see it.
Thank you for keeping us posted! There are a lot of us following and sending our thoughts and prayers for her full recovery.
Weeks, months. Often residual symptoms become only apparent to those close to the person and the person themselves. I would think some long lasting residual issues would not be uncommon. Just how much is hard to say.
Not directly from the family, but good news none the less: http://www.britisheventing.com/asp-net/news/item.aspx?id=6878
It is good to know that Emily is showing improvement, I pray she makes a full recovery.
Thank you for the updates. Keep the good news coming. Hoping for a full and speedy recovery
From Polly:
Sorry all for the absence of news as sure lots of you are desperate to hear how the last few days have gone for Em. so here is Shirley’s update 15th may
‘Emily continues to improve, she now has no tubes attached. She is moving into the next phase where the hospital concentrate on physio, occupational therapy, helping her to regain her recollections. She may be moved from Bristol to Stoke-on-Trent at some stage, which would be so much easier for all the family.’
It was incredible at Chatsworth the amount of people wishing Em the speediest recovery she’s one popular Girl. Come on Em
ooops 
Hoping for smooth continuous progress.

Update from Stoke hospital on Em
''Emily has now moved to The Royal Stoke on Trent hospital where she has a nice room with a view.
Her mobility has improved and
although she is still muddled, conversations last longer but sometimes with curious twists and turns! She does have some double vision and the facial surgeon is assessing whether or not the fractures in her cheek bone and eye socket need attention.
Emily’s appetite is improving, and she is more engaged when she is talking, but she says she is bored and is adament that she is going home tomorrow - it’s proving difficult to manage her expectations!
Thank you for the continued updates. Jingles for her recovery.
A great spirit showing through!
Sorry guys, I’m not being hopeless at updating you, there are no updates! As soon as there is one, I’ll let you know
From Polly:
Hello Facebook friends and followers of Emily’s journey I’m back with more information and progress reports to keep you all up to date
’ Em has had some really good progress in the last few days and is accepting she can’t discharge herself quite yet !! The next step is to assess what rehab she needs and will know more about this in next few days ’
Em is doing so well, she can read her cards and says a big thank you for all her lovely cards and messages. 
Great news!
Looking forward to her next steps!
Thank you for all the updates!
