A huge welcome to our newest Team EQUUS Brand Ambassador, Jennie from @jenniesharpeshowjumper ✨ We are so happy to have Jennie join the team and cant wait to watch her riding journey! Have a read about Jennie in her own words below 👇
"Hi I'm Jennie and the Owner of JK Equestrian. On 25th December 2018 I suffered a life changing injury and was diagnosed with Couda Equina Syndrome. I had major emergency spinal surgery, my L5/S1 collapsed and crushed my nerve Canal, leaving me with permanent damage and a new disability I had to come to terms with, I was told I’d never walk again unaided and definitely wouldn’t ride again.
I have been left with permanent numbness in my right leg and foot, and no bladder and bowel function.
I completely lost my nerve and thought my career was over. Luckily with a fantastic support team around me and sheer determination I got back on board and I am back competing! Since this I have had a further 2 spinal surgery’s and spinal fluid leak. I am also on the waiting list for a colostomy bag.
Life is hard, I’m a firm believer in being kind, working hard and supporting everyone, no matter what level they maybe. "
