Horse wreck with my sis
Several of you know my sis so Ill post this hoping you get to read it
She was in a horse wreck last night. We arent exactly sure what happened because no one saw it.
Sis broke her neck, dislocated elbow and shoulder, ribs, and 40 staples to put her scalp back on.
Thanks to STARS for getting to the ranch and getting her to Edmonton.
She moved her legs and arms this morning.
Id have given you that know her a call but I dont have all your phone numbers. So I apologise if this is how you find out. It's the best I could do.

A close friend of the family had a horse go over backwards 3 summers ago, it was fatal,
saddle horn crushed the middle of her chest. Horses, imo, are very hazardous hobby.

Having just gotten out of foothills after nearly a month, including a week in intensive care, I was usually located close STARS landing pad.
In my drug addled state, I’d say that STARS made at least 3 trips a day, not to mention in the middle of the night that I managed to fitfully sleep through.
My hat is off to Stars and those involved in support. Hoping for a fast recovery for your sister Huntin.

The Stars landing pad used to be just north of the Foothills Emergency Department.
One of my colleagues has his office right next door. A few years ago, I asked him how many times STARS landed in a day and I think he said "zero to 10" or something similar.
That landing pad has been removed for the walkway from Foothills to the new Cancer Centre and I believe STARS now lands on the roof of a building further west.

Positive thoughts you way.
HS,
Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. Hopes for a full and speedy recovery.
If you do anything rural: Live/work/hunt/fish/quad/travel you need to support STARS. If something goes sideways they are your best bet.
I know many people who are alive because of STARS.
Everyone please keep them flying. Donate what you can.
