She will be missed dearly, it will be weird to set up for photos and not have her stepping in and taking over. LOL Goofy kid.

Well we are not going to get a lot of sleep tonight, waiting knowing that tomorrow afternoon Syssa will be here and we will have so much fun with our sister again. We know that it will never be the same, but she will always be our sister, no matter if she is different.
Some friends of mine had a horse for sale that their oldest daughter had used for the rodeo and her sister did not want so they were selling it and getting a different breed. So we took off and headed to check out this horse. I had ridden it before when I was staying at the house playing.
As we enjoyed talking to everyone there was a loud SNAP from the side of the house and their big dog Max came tearing around the house snapping his jaws. Mama got my sisters into the paddock and I was trying to calm Wind Dancer, she was freaking out as Max barked at her.
I turned her around and they were chaining up the dog. Then Max broke loose and came at us, Wind turned and jumped right in front of a truck. The trucker had seen us coming and was behind a slower vehicle or I would have been killed. I felt the truck hit, but it did not hurt me, I was so worried about Wind Dancer I could not realize that I was broken too. I had several surgeries over the next few weeks to put my leg together and save it. Some said he could not do it, but my dr. did it. They said I might not walk again at least without a cane and limp. After the surgeries it was in traction to hold all three places together to heal. Took forever, it was hard to deal with the long days in bed not able to hear. Sleeping is hard work. I did just that. I have no limp or cane and I can even run small distances. I am trying to be a happy normal 10 year old again, but it is not easy. I see a nice counselor who is helping me deal with the accident memories, pain and not hearing well. I really like counselor and I get to draw and talk about things I think of too. I get all shakey and breathe funny when I think of horses or riding anymore. My counselor says one day I should ride again. I do not want to.
So I am healing well and learning what is needed. I might ride one day but I doubt it for a long time. I also will have issues with big dogs, but Spies helps me with that, he is a good big dog. Ask me and I will answer. More about things later.
Happy 2019!! She had a broken leg and collar bone, but is mended from that, the horse she was riding had to be put down. She was riding a friends horse and their mean big dog got loose and came up and bit the horses leg and it took off. She had it stopped just before the road when the dog caught up and the horse jumped in front of a truck and they were hit. Syssa was lucky that she was alive. She is just sick over the horse, she was thinking of buying the horse, the friend put her dog down too. It was a dog that has caused a lot of issues. After it attacked the horse and sent them into the truck they just could not keep it. It was awful to see Syssa get wisked away in the ambulance. We were both there, Me Brya and our sister Kyla. We saw the whole thing happen from the beginning. Kyla is now terrified of big dogs. She wants nothing to do with the big dogs at the Estates now. She was never into horses, and not sure she will ever ride either. It was hard to watch your sister in an accident in front of you and not react too. This is Kyla and I waiting for our sister to come home, we are doing a daily photo challenge for the month of January. Cannot believe it is 2019 now. Scary!!
