Hearing them coming down the hall, room to room, for "redressing" of the wounds will never be forgotten. The screams just kept getting louder until you knew it was your turn. YAY.

Jesus!!!!!

Well. Fentanyl is something else.

I had a 2nd degree on side of my right hand, little finger as a child. I still remember how much it hurt.

As the late Richard Pryor said after his burns from freebasing cocaine, 'Fire is inspirational...they should use it in the Olympics!'

Ive been hung up in stirrups and drug by horses so I feel Sara's pain! Sara thats an impressive wreck. A friend in Montana decided to jump on a mule bareback, joking around. The mule was having no parts of it and bucked...HARD! I have seen a lot of people come off animals and never as high as this girl flew. Result, severely broken ankle on landing! Just goes to show, I dont care how "bombproof" you think your animal is, they all have bad days

I love horses and think that they have a special nobility that few living things share but I do not trust anything that big that has a mind of it's own with my life.

"Fentanyl is approximately 80 to 100 times more potent than morphine and roughly 40 to 50 times more potent than pharmaceutical grade (100% pure) heroin.[13][14]"

What about the little horses? My girl here is only 14.3 hands. I'm 5'4 so she's not very big at all. ( this is one that threw me 13 years ago lol)

I'd rather be thrown and kicked 100 times before going through what you went through

Indeed!!
I work in the industry in the pain space. As I said, it is something else!!!

I am beginning to reassess my thinking here...

When my shoulder came out they gave me 2.5 doses (~4mg) of fentanyl through IV. Didn't really affect me much honestly, just made me really chatty. The last half dose was right before they reduced the joint and asked me if I thought I needed more and my response was, "Sure, why not."

It was pretty cool how fast it clears your system though. I went from feeling like a happy, talkative drunk to stone sober in like 25 minutes.

Edit: Units on dosage may not be correct. Value based on my memory while on fentanyl. lol

This is my bad one. She's a lot bigger. My "wild child", on the contrary, she's never once thrown me in 12 years.

It is a really clean product. I'm guessing you didn't have the hazy feeling some of the older preps would leave the patient with, as well.

Ive trained every size of green horse, from ponies that were 13-14 hands to Percheron drafts that were 18-19 hands and the smaller ones are BY FAR worse. They are so much faster, can turn on a DIME! The big guys are slow and cumbersome. Consider the difference between a large NFL lineman as opposed to a cornerback. Very diff levels of agility. Now try to stay on one's back! The big ones are like riding a couch though, so wide that saddles never really "fit" and tend to wander. Riding a bucking Percheron down the side of a mountain is one of my highlights because he was very green and my saddle kept slipping all over, pissing him off!

Yet you still ride her bareback. You need to learn from your mistakes because it sounds like you got REALLY lucky the first time. Granted I bet you on top of the blanket and squeezing your legs around her belly is what spooked her.
