Hi, thanks for your post. I lost my log-in for a while. I decided to sell my horse. My daughter still has hers and we have a really old guy that will keep her horse company in the pasture. I am terrified of getting a second concussion. Balance is not at or near what it needs to be to ride safely. With using one eye at a time, I can feel my center of balance shift. From everything I have read, it seems to be that trying to go back to doing all the stuff people did before is a part of what causes many of the second concussions. Going back into physical sports, or driving a car, too soon puts a person at much greater risk of re-injuring themselves. Or, in the case of driving, someone else. Maybe I will ride again in a year or two. I will wait and see, then.
