Really nice to get your comment, thanks.The pictures come from real horses and people, used to train them myself and compete dressage so it's all first hand.
Christina from the barnmice shop is selling the cards you need to contact her on how they are sold.
Love your profile picture
I'm sure Astid will get back to you very quickly, but I spotted your question and thought I would help as well. If you go to the Eurodressage group and click on "reply" to any discussion, or try to post on their comment wall, you will be prompted to join the group. I hope this is helpful! p.s. Your foal is absolutely stunning!
Keep healing!

I was helped ENORMOUSLY by a therapy called Somatic Experiencing (info & practitioners at www.traumahealing.com). A couple of friends who had PTSD after auto accidents & childhood trauma were helped by EMDR therapy (I checked it out but it wasn't for me; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_Movement_Desensitization_and_Reprocessing)
I've had terrible trouble with recurrent shingles after trauma and surgeries. At least until I had the steel plate removed from my arm on the 13th (knock on wood).
I've also had recurrent yeast infections from antibiotics. There's a super Fluconazole tablet out there now that'll kill most systemic yeast infections. You only need to take it once (my doctor told me to take it for a week, just to be sure). You're probably doing this already, but eat masses of bio-active yogurt and take probiotics too.
I sometimes travel to Brockville to train with Gina Smith and then head to the shows at Nepean. That's a gorgeous show ground - perhaps we have run into each other there!
