Saturday morning my daughter Caitlin was thrown from her horse. She landed badly on hard ground breaking her right thumb and her left shoulder. The top of the humerus is broken off and twisted behind.
The surgery is scheduled for noon central time. It is expected to be a day surgery.
With God's help, she and all of us will get through this quickly. She is in good spirits. She is a tough barrel racer, but she is only 13.
God Bless you all for your prayers.
Two or more amen to all your prayers !
For sure you have my prayer but be reassured, kids at that age recover quickly. I remember an ER doc who said that all they had to do was to put things back in alignment and stand back. Still will need bracing but a body in good condition at that age should do fine. Still, God Bless!
Prayers for your daughter’s speedy recovery and return to barrel racing!
Dear Lord, please keep watch over this child. Bring strength to her, and all who love her and guide her medical team in their efforts.
Heavenly Father, hear our prayers.

Prayers up for your daughter. All will be well.
Adding my prayers for a fast and uneventful recovery.
Unfortunately, injuries are a hazard of the trade. It’s never a case of ‘’if’’ but always a case of ‘’when’’. I hope she bounces back mentally/emotionally without any leftovers.
Gotta jump back on the horse!
We will pray for her,((((Hugs))))
I am praying for your daughter.

Aww, poor kiddo! My 11 year old niece loves horses - she isn’t riding right now, but hopes to again soon. Praying for your lovely daughter. She sounds fiesty! Praying for you too, that you aren’t so stressed. Praying for the surgeons & nurses that tend to your daughter.
Hope you can post an update after surgery.
Prayers up from over here.
I join in earnest prayer for your daughter!
