RE: [RC] Head Trauma & helmets - Karen Standefer

I fell off a horse at a dead run in 2001 (day before 9/11) WITH my helmet on.  I was blacked out for over an hour.  The ambulance came down the trail to get me, took me to the hospital and I don’t remember any of it.  I woke up in ER.  The helmet was trashed.  But, I’m alive!

You only need to see someone hit their head once while coming off a horse to never want to ride without a helmet ! I saw a lady with a helmet go over on her kid's horse.  The helmet saved her life, period.
