Met with several accidents in the course of riding a horse

Louise was just 15 when she met with her life’s serious riding accident. She was riding her horse when the horse threw her off on the pile of bricks that led her to break her femur. 

She was hospitalized and was on traction for 13 weeks. She had to give up horse riding temporarily. 

She was back to a horse riding course, but until she could finish the course, she was pregnant with her first child. 

After the birth of her first child, her husband gifted Isobelle, a Belgian Warmblood, and soon she started schooling.
