She was sitting up and didn't seem to be too bad considering. I guess with it being a kid and a head trauma it's agood thing to fly her out to be on the safe side.Hope all is good for her.

The medics were pretty sure that she had broke her jaw, the way she was kicked and the swelling that happened so fast, that is why she was flown to childrens. Long story short..she has a very bruised jaw (not broken) and 5 stitches to in her jaw and 4 in her lip. she has to see a dentist this week for a few things, but she does have all her teeth. Her shoulder is pretty bruised but not broken or sprained.. We are VERY lucky!!
I just want to give a great big thank you to everyone at the MW show-Everyone was and has been wonderful to our family. I want to especially thank BUSTERDUCK!! She came straight to me and told me she would take care of my horses,kids,trailer, or what ever I needed..It was nice to know that I didnt have to think of anything besides my daughter-thanks again .

The horse probably wasn't aiming for the child. Horses and trailers are packed in pretty tight at the MW shows and there's always the unsupervised kid galloping their pony around the parking areas. Sounds like, in the wrong place at the wrong time. Hard way to learn the lesson of staying out of the hindquarter danger zone. Glad to hear she is doing well!
