Horseback Riding for the First Time in 3 Months

Horseback Riding for the First Time in 3 Months was created by tgurin12
I'm finally going horseback riding again. My platelets have been over 50,000 for 5 weeks so I figured it was about time. Of course, getting a lesson time at my popular stable was hard but they fit me in for Saturday. I'm so nervous I'm going to make a fool of myself since I have been mostly laying around for 3 months. :laugh: Wish me luck everyone.

That's great! I remember how bumpy horseback riding is - smart to be careful with really low counts.
