Ralph has returned home with his family and is now just doing out patient rehab at Cardinal Hill 3 times a week. For those of you who have been following the carepages there is some great news as Ralph has indicated he would like to put his own message up on the care page in the next few days. He will be working on it and as soon as I receive it I will post it here. Please keep your messages and encouraging words for Ralph coming!

I have never met Ralph but know his farm, and quite a bit about him and know people who live near or have known him, first of all he is widely respected as an excellent rider. I know just about all his neighbours. Mary in front, Jamie on the other side, and Trish who is no longer there, she sold her first place to Jamie, then built another, then another, finally moved away. I also knew an old buddy of Ralph's who used to play pool with him, John Hawkins. Anyway, this is all very round about but am very sorry of the sad news and hope he is improving. All the best and a speedy full recovery.

hi all. he's been up and out at a few local show at the kentucky horse park. memory is still not there. so crowds make him a little nervous. but the quick whit and ole ralph humor is starting to emerge. he has been on a horse, walking around and such, but thinks it is much work. please do go by the care page and leave him a message, they are still being read to him everyday.

we really do miss him down here in florida and are hopeful we might get to see him this winter:) (fingers crossed)

i do still have some of the "ride it like you stole it" bracelets left,for you all still needing some.

NEW UPDATE-AND IT'S GOOD!!!!

More great news as Ralph continues to rapidly improve. Ralph's memory is improving very rapidly now and he is able to remember more people and specific events from the past. He was able to coach some riders at the Mid South CCI and really enjoyed being back in the 10 min box again. While he still has some physical impairment with his leg which restricts his ability to walk courses etc he is very capable of coaching from the sidelines and is looking forward to regaining his strength so he can resume coaching and teaching on a more regular basis. His rate of improvement seems to be increasing and he is able to recognize people and horses much better than even a month ago.
Ralph will be going to some events and teaching over the next few months as his rehab schedule allows. While he is not yet able to take on students on a full time basis we will post updates here as to when he is ready and able as well as where he will be available for lessons. Ralph's family continues to assist him with his living needs at this time and will continue to do so until he is fully capable physically.
I am still hoping to get a more personal update from Ralph soon. In the meantime please continue to post your support here. Ralph's rate and extent of recovery is exceeding everyone's expectations!

lets all keep praying and sending jingles, they seem to be working!
