How about you?
How do you deal with cancer? None of us know until it happens. Most people get on with it, and find a tremendous amount of support during treatment from the hospital, cancer support nurses and other care providers and from family and friends. However, what most women say is that they feel lost when they are sent home in remission. What happens then? Everyone thinks you are ok, that you are 'cured' but how do you feel?

At a time when you need to find the inner strength to go forward, you might, like many cancer survivors, be struggling. Horses seem to know what we need and, on a deep level, help us to move forward to embrace our lives by responding to us with gentleness, playfulness and joy.

A horse can get you back in touch with nature and with your 'self' connecting with who you truly are.

Someone once said to me, 'When you are around your horses, nothing else exists'. and I realise that this appears to be true when most women are near a horse. I don't fully know why, although I have some theories.
