National 50 - she's lame!

[Anna Wolfe <awolfe@etsc.net>]

Dear Fellow Ridecampers,

Went out to give my mare a bath before we head to Timberon tomorrow, and 
on a whim I put her in the round pen.  Much to my surprise, she was 
lame.  I couldn't feel anything, so I hauled her to the vet, and he 
thinks her front right suspensory ligament is just slightly pulled.  No 
swelling, or anything, but definitely lame.  So we can't come, and so 
I'm disappointed - not sure she is, though - she loves it in the field!

In case anyone is reading this who is in touch with the people at 
Timberon, can you please let them know I'm not coming - just so they 
know?  While I emailed Randy, I don't think he is picking them up while 
there.  I don't know how else to get in touch with them.  Also does 
anyone know anything about this type of injury?  Vet thought she would 
be fine in a week, but I want to know more about it.  Also, does anyone 
have news on the 100 yet?  I'll be thinking about everyone there and 
wishing I was there.

Anna and Well Seen
