Hi! I just wanted to pass along a quick note and video of Grant riding last night. He's having so much fun!!

Two of my best horseback memories were AFTER my truck wreck that left me paralyzed from the chest down. My therapy saddle has enabled me to be the only paralyzed contestant in the PRCA and win Reserve World Champion at the APHA World Show!"

Hello,
Grant is loving his saddle again this summer. He is in a therapeutic riding group in these pictures. We go once a week and he has a blast. I’m so pleased with the freedom the saddle gives Grant. Without it, he would have to be hanging on and focusing so hard, he wouldn’t be able to visit and have a good time. Actually he would be pretty scared. He feels very secure in the saddle. We are in the process of finding a good horse for him here at home. The old mare he was riding past away this Spring. We actually have 3 different ones here right now that we are trying. The problem is, I like them all and so do the boys. I guess 3 boys need 3 horses, right? My husband, Ross, doesn’t seem to agree with us though. We’re just fortunate to have found 3 of them so nice that we actually have a selection. All is going real well for us. We are well into building our new home and everyone is super excited about that as well. We didn’t make it down to meet you in person this winter and I was very disappointed. I will meet you someday as I have to thank you in person for what you’ve given our son. The ability to ride a horse like I never thought he could is a great gift. I pray that all is well with you and hope to visit with you soon. I’ll send some more pictures as the summer goes and Grant gets to ride more.
