One of the girls who boards her horse at our farm rode him this week for our horse camp in order to get better at riding him...
Well, he bolted with her today, she fell, and fractured the femur bone near her knee...
She is having surgery tonight... Please say a prayer for her...

Oh no. That had to be quite a fall to break a femur. Prayers all around.

About 5 years ago, my son's horse kicked him because the horse got spooked, and my son broke his femur, also needed surgery, blood clots racing through his body, and the doctor told him he might not wake up again.
He made it and I am grateful to God, but I realize how dangerous blood clots can be after that experience. He had to take blood thinners for awhile after that. I will keep your friend in my prayers that she will be spared any random clots.

It ends up that the doctors were able to set her knee without having to do an open surgery. Thanks be to God!
The girl will have to wear the brace for about 4 weeks and after 8 weeks the doctor says that she will be able to ride again.
Thank you for all of the prayers!

Yes and for you and your horse riding enterprise...could you be sued? Everyone who rides at the farm has to sign a waiver. So, that helps protect us from being sued. The girl was also riding her own horse which she boards here. Her mother understands the danger of working with horses and did not hold the accident against us at all. (Thanks be to God!) I still felt bad for the poor girl. But, her mother says the only thing she complained about was not being able to be in camp for the rest of the summer. She was SUCH a trooper!
