In 4 weeks, you might be close enough to ok to be able to pull it off, especially if you tape them.<br /><br />Vest looks good, but, um, it's white... I could help you with that!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08421589409738817614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-11002623259954093412011-02-07T09:45:45.793-08:002011-02-07T09:45:45.793-08:00Hope you feel better soon - cracked ribs are AWFUL...Hope you feel better soon - cracked ribs are AWFUL. Take it as easy as you can - four weeks might be long enough to be 'back to normal' depending upon how bad it is. There's a great article on wrapping them here (http://www.ehow.com/how_2302404_tape-cracked-ribs.html), which might be helpful for your show, but definitely not a long-term solution. Get well soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-49430906835331067802011-02-07T08:45:35.406-08:002011-02-07T08:45:35.406-08:00Nice to have an in-house vet, oops, Dr....grin

Gives me goose bumps every single time I see a horse and rider performing at level 4! Kudos on the vest too, you are making me look bad accomplishing so much while nursing injuries.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966566655228721549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-69793368366240811862011-02-07T08:16:49.398-08:002011-02-07T08:16:49.398-08:00Nah; they can't do anything for a cracked rib....Nah; they can't do anything for a cracked rib. I may have Rick ultrasound it, though, just so I know how long to expect it to take to heal. I must say it was MUCH more comfortable in my own bed last night, and therefore less uncomfortable this morning when I got up!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-4577785684297305122011-02-07T07:32:27.703-08:002011-02-07T07:32:27.703-08:00Perhaps you need a visit to the doc and an x-ray ....Perhaps you need a visit to the doc and an x-ray . . .

(my horse decided there was goblin ahead of us and I did not see it! landed in the gravel.)<br /><br />Hope you heal fast!Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01232588216694535922noreply@blogger.com
