What is your problem with me? Why the obsession? My personal Facebook page is private. Not all posts are private, but 98% are. It’s scary the amount of time and access you get to my PRIVATE page, along with other people on this forum. Yes, you can see my profile when I post on ISO Tack FB pages. Quite frankly, you are very disturbing stalking people, especially me, on Facebook.
The horse is fully capable of doing exactly 1.30m and scope for higher. I’m a more advanced dressage rider…horse is definitely 4th Level.
I’ve been through hell and back many times for 11 years. Unless you’ve had everything that I’ve listed on my GoFundMe, you have no right to judge. And how am I making anything up? You think the medications and ER trips and incessant hospital visits are for fun? When I manage to get out and travel, I have to take so much pain medication just to make it through. After, I am destroyed and out for at least a week, recovering from any travels. Yes, I have been bedridden. What would appease you? Seeing my medical records?
Also, my budget was $25-$40k…I found a horse for $35k…but add on commission, vetting, importing, trailering/shipping…that bumped up the cost. So in actuality, I was in budget.
And like I stated…like all of you who say you need to “pay to play”…one pro in my area sure as hell hasn’t. She got $70,000 just to show in Europe for two weeks. Boo-hoo. If you can’t afford that, you shouldn’t be going. Hell, she’s lucky enough that she gets to show all year round, especially at Ocala, WEF, and LGCT Miami. So why can’t I ask for money for legitimate health causes? Unlike her…due to my illness–as people don’t care about anyone who is sick unless it happens to them–…I don’t have thousands of FB friends to beg from. But I am counting on church groups and other’s support. This horse is my emotional and mental therapy…a release from the countless hours waiting in doctors offices multiple days a week.
