Tragic, she could have hung on
and carried on.
So many have.


[A characteristic that used to be my
strength is now my downfall.
I'm so stubborn and determined,
I have to be good at everything I do
and if not I slam doors.

'I am an incredible person,
something I genuinely truly believe
now but it doesn't change anything.
Life is cruel, really cruel. I was amazing,
a completely independent stubborn C,
but I was a F ing good one.'

Her death was announced online by
Eventing News, who wrote:
'It's with heavy hearts that we share
the news of Caroline March's passing
yesterday, March 23rd,
just over a month after her 31st birthday.

'Caroline was well-known and loved
throughout the British eventing community
for her big personality and fiery streak,
and a zest for the things that she loved
that saw her accomplish much in
her three decades.]

C & F were edited by me
to avoid total stars
As it shows her passion

I seem to recall Christopher Reeve falling off a horse and being paralysed …


Crazy thing is that he’d been practicing being disabled for the past twelve months for his next movie !!

How weird is that !?!?

Yes, he was.

She only lost her use of her back
able to see the horses still

It's sad that she couldn't adapt to her situation, or that she felt that she couldn't adapt anyway.

RIP

Yes probably a very complex situation for her … she could have still ridden with an adapted saddle presumably

… it’s all very sad and I think it’s a very relevant story as well in the general ‘assisted suicide’ debate and thought process…

Life can be so cruel sometimes.
