My name is Jill. I am a C6-7 quadraplegic, you can see me describe it in the video. I’m paralyzed from my midchest to my toes, no voluntary movement or sensation. I have limited use of my hands…no grip. You’ll see me lean over in the video, well I have learned so much from this video too. I was so impressed with being able to lean over and not hold onto anything. I felt before I saw the video I almost was laying on my lap. What I realized is I’m not moving half as much as I felt I was. Which isn’t bad, any top movement I’ve always panicked and my family was always reassuring me I wasn’t going anywhere. Now I see what they see, plus I’m still proud to lean even that much still for starters. I would’ve never reached for the reins like I do either. But being paralyzed this high it has been a balance game for 20 plus years, so ALL my movements have just become controlled out of 2nd nature. So when I was a bit wobbly it would scare me to death. But I love it so much I wouldn’t quit either. So after getting Poco my Equicizer, being able to challenge myself on something that felt and sat real but was NOT going to move was the greatest deal…this is just the beginning!

This is my first video, and I’m not good at slideshows, so I know it’s not great lol. And I also know I’m not photogenic. At all. So no reminding me lol xD Anyway, these are pictures from my first and third lesson, and the horses’ names are Caroline, Treasure, and Freedom. If you don’t know which is which, watch until the end of the video and it’ll tell you. None of the horses are mine, but I’m hoping to lease either Freedom or Caroline by this summer. Rate and comment please! Flames will be used to keep me warm cause it’s cold today lol ^^
Song(s): Look through my eyes/You’ll be in my heart

P.S
I’m the one in the green jacket and the other two girls are ones who I ride with. Their names are Jenna and Bailey.
