My helmet saved my LIFE! by Jennifer

On May 27, 2004, I was riding my instructors horse when I went down to adjust my stirrup when the horse freaked. I stayed when she was rearing and bucking. No big deal. But she reared big time lost her balance and fell on me. Well she did the works to me. I was sent to the emergentecy trauma room. Were I had so many X-rays, catscans, and some other things. The only thing I had broken my pelvic bone in 3 places. I broken my leg. The only thing that saved me from the hard rocky ground and the horse was my helmet and my prayer,"God, please help." PLEASE WEAR YOUR HELMET, I NEVER WORE MY HELMET UNTIL MY TRAINER TOLD ME. NOW IT SAVED MY LIFE!
