Thank you, just thank you, for reminding me of what that bond is like, Ive found another horse ive bonded too, has been almost 25 years of looking, and thank you for you love of Stormy and his obvious love of you. I miss Babe, but you made me remember how special she was to me, keep the love and the fun going for us all
I too saw you compete on Fri at the Equine Affair in Columbus. I had missed the fact that Stormy was blind until I saw you enter the box where you dismounted. I was in awe watching you the rest of the way. What an amazing relationship you have with this horse. It choked me up when you completed it, and the standing ovation was well deserved! Good for you!!!!!!!!!
Beka, I saw you two live at Equine Affaire in Columbus last weekend. It was the most amazing horse & rider pairing I've ever seen. Thank you for competing; if you hadn't, all of the audience would have missed out on witnessing something wonderful.
Houdini & I would love to meet and ride with you guys this summer. Houdini lost what was left of his vision in 2003. I wonder if he and Stormy would sense that they are one in the same?
Thanks so much for showing just how much a blind horse can do with some time to adjust and a patient loving human partner. My horse Fessor has been blind for four and a half years, due to recurrent uveitis. We no longer jump, but Fessor has become a decent lower to mid-level dressage horse. And we enjoy relaxing together on the trails. He has an amazing outlook and has taught me about courage and grace under challenging circumstances.
Our prayers go out to you and Stormy, honey. You've done an amazing job with him, and it's obvious he trusts you implicitly. We're looking forward to hearing the results of your race! We know you both can do it, the two of you have enough heart and spirit for ten horse and rider teams! Beka and Stormy, we wish you God speed, and safety above all else. Great job and good luck!
@rcatheron Thank you so very much for your kind words and support! We just got back home today from Equine Affaire, and Stormy did Wonderful!!!! I couldn't be happier! We placed 20th, but that didn't bother me in the slightest! More than winning I was hoping to be an inspiration to others in a similar situation, and I hope we accomplished that! :) thanks again!
