So for the past 3-4 weeks Ive had a horrible, annoying cough but tbh Ive felt ok in myself. I was due to go to the Royal Highland Show last Tues and stay until Sunday night and so typically, over the weekend I started to feel awful I managed to see the GP on Monday and got antibiotics and thought all would be well. (For anyone that doesn’t know, I breed standard Shetlands.)
I was determined to go, I was in the very, very fortunate position to go along with and help a top stud and just take along 1 of my ponies. Unfortunately as the week progressed I felt worse and worse It was an absolutely incredible experience and I learned so much. I am absolutely exhausted and was straight back at the GP on Mon to be told the chest infection I have is resistant to the antibiotics they gave me, so Im onto a different lot now. Can’t say I feel any better yet, Ive never coughed so much and still have a fever coming and going, euugh.
It was all so worth it though. Showing at the RHS has always been a dream and waking into the ring I had to take a hold of myself, the parades each day were incredible too. My 2 year old colt, Wells Grenadier was 2nd, I am SO proud My next dream is to take something home bred but my goodness that is a very, very long time off. It takes so long to achieve such quality.
Briea has now been off work for 2 weeks, I was meant to have a lesson tonight but I can’t even get off the sofa
