From Lucinda's Facebook page: Toddy cracking open the Champagne whilst visiting me in hospital on my Birthday after my incident...
Best wishes to Lucinda Green for a speedy recovery. On her Facebook page, Lucinda announced that she sustained an injury to her foot:
It was a complete freak accident, I was trotting up a horse and she spooked and trod on my boot, I then fell over and the boot fell off. The poor little horse did her best to try and ‘dance’ over me but somehow managed to catch the underside of my bootless foot and ripped the skin about 8 cm along and about 2 cm deep. I had to have surgery and stay in for 3 nights (as it took me two days to pass the crutch test before I was allowed to leave). I now have to have it up for at least 2 weeks which will ruin many a plan, but I better obey because if the stitches break they were talking about plastic surgery…. fingers crossed I can behave! xL
So many silly ways to get hurt around horses! Even when you do everything right, something can go wrong. Keep your heads up Eventing Nation, and get well Lucinda!
