Another name for concussion is Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and they are no joke! I got one 15 years ago, when my car was T-boned by a bus. It’s very important to listen to your body! If you are tired, it’s important to rest/sleep! I know it’s hard to just stop when there is work to do, but it’s paramount to your recovery to listen to what your brain and body are telling you. Praying for your full recovery!

And, get this, you have to rest your brain after such an injury. It must be difficult!

Agree! That also happened to a friend of mine. She was hit by a truck while walking across the street! It's a miracle she's alive & yeah, it took at least a year for her to recover.

OMGOSH😢 everyone w/a TBI, I'm so sorry. I had a small concussion when I was a teen, they called it a "meer' concussion. I experienced some dizziness, lightheadedness, nauseous, sleepy, fatigued & I was scared. That was one heck of a wack to Ur head to be knocked out, very scarey. Thank God for cell phones & that U weren't all alone at the time Julie. I know U will keep Ur distance from now on when Ur close by Ur animals, including being near the goats too 🐐🐐 Love Ur farm & all Ur animals & I still think of Lucky from time to time. He sure was a special horse & he sure loved U Julie. I'm real happy about that. I'm keeping Ur farm, all Ur animals & all of U folks in my daily prayers & thank U so much for showing us the beautiful videos ❤ God Bless 🙌 U All Forevermore 🙏🤲 🕊✝️😇❤🐎🐴💙

They could have donated the dead horses to Buzzards, who need nutrition to survive in the wild

No apologies needed Fletcher Farms are truly angels working with these kind souls!

Have retired horses is a mixed blessing. You improve their lives dramatically to see them have the happiest ending possible. God bless and stay well.

Was in tears watching your accident and hearing about your health the past few months. Rest up and don’t push yourself too hard ~ your body needs a lot of time to recover. So happy to have you back and have the update on these precious horses. I’m so sorry about your two losses ~ Charlie and Amelia were so blessed to spend their time on the farm with you. You are a blessing to all the animals you have rescued. Blessings and prayers.

I’m so happy to see you are back. So sorry about your accident and I hope you will be better soon. Take it as easy as you can. I hope you will get some volunteers in to help out. Also sorry about the two losses. So sad. 😢 I hope Eva will fit in soon and that you’re able to have her eyes taken care of. I would like to mail a small donation is there an address that I can use. God bless you for what you are doing. Xoxo. Lois

It’s a joy and a relief to have you back! To have weathered grief on top of a head injury is an enormous accomplishment. As the adopter of an 11 pound dog with traumatic behavior issues, I just can’t say how much I admire you for taking on a gigantic behaviorally affected Belgian like Ava. You all are truly heroes

I am so sorry for the loss of two of your draft horses. I hope your health is feeling better and I hope all the horses and donkeys at the shelter are doing good.❤

While I too am heartbroken over the passing of Charlie & Amelia, I am at a loss to think of a nicer way to leave this earth than to lie down in a place where you feel loved & peaceful and drift off. You & Corey provide such a place to all of your animals. Thank you for that! I'm glad you're pursuing patreon funding or anything where we can do an automatic monthly deposit to help the farm. And I'm grateful you are doing better, but brain injuries can't be rushed - so please be kind to yourself : not sure how many emergency calls Corey can tolerate! So welcome back FFA be you 2 or 4 legged. I, and many others missed you and are relieved to see you all again.

Glad you are back for updates. So sorry about your mishap and for the losses. I am really impressed by how wonderful Grace and Will are looking. Happy to know that your new feeding program is working out so well for everyone.

Julie I’m so glad you are on the mend,such a frightening thing to go through 🙏 Rest peacefully Charlie and Amelia 🐴🐴❤️

So glad to see you back, keep looking after yourself please! I'm so sorry about Charlie and Amelia but so grateful they had a chance to be in such a loving, happy environment in their last years.

I'm so sorry to hear about Charlie and Amelia. May they RIP. You made their final months as wonderful as possible. Sending hugs. Glad to see you back on KZread. Sending prayers that you recover, from your injury, completely soon

So Happy you are ok... Praise the Lord...

🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖 The horses look amazingly healthy and their coats absolutely shine like the sun. Violet is adorable! 🙏💖🙏💖

Thank you for saving that beautiful Belgian mare,

Please take care of yourself around the horses and donkeys for that matter. They might be old but are massive, you on the other hand are tiny. They would never mean to hurt you but, as you found out, accidents happen in the blink of an eye. You still need to take it easy though. 💔 to hear about Charlie and Amelia, both darlings. I hope the new girl relaxes soon and realise she home with good people. Blessings 🐎🙏

So sorry for your loss of Charlie n Amelia 🌈 I am so glad you are doing better n are back take care ❤

Sorry for your loss. Take all the time you need we all can wait. A concussion is something you need to be careful of. Take care and we will wait.

Oh my goodness dear girl. I'm so grateful that you are recovering after such a shock and bereavement over the losses of Charlie and Amelia. There was an obvious hole in my life when I didn't see youand your uploads for so long. Many prayers coming your way. Thank you for posting all the stuff. Now it's onward nd upward. God bless.

I'm a retired psychologist who worked with folks who had TBI. Please take care of yourself and try very hard not to injure your brain again. Brain injuries are cumulative.

You are a blessing ❣️

OMG!!!! You are proving to be very strong woman. Here is hoping you and family will get better quickly. Ava is beautiful but cantankerous.

I'm so sorry to hear about Charlie and Amelia. The down side of rescuing the Seniors is you don't get as much time with them, but the time you had was quite possibly the best of their lives. Those Donks love the heck-all out of you! I suspect Ava was drugged out of her mind at the auction, and has had some very bad experiences with people. Poor girl.

Beautiful horses. Beautiful ranch. Glad your back Stay safe

Grace is Lovely. . . Will looked like a Thoroughbred from a distance!!!

I am very sorry about Charlie and Amelia but they were so grateful you rescued them and had a wonderful retirement. I also had a concussion and I would have dizzy spells for a year that immobilized me. Scared me every time I had one. It does get better so hang in there. I was knocked out by longhorn that turned her head when I was feeding her carrots and I dropped one, bent down to pick it up and she turned her head and I flew backwards. Still love our animals!!

I’m so glad you are recovering well! I’m glad you worked out a new and improved feeding system for most of the horses. Again thank you for what you do. It was so nice to get an update, I was wondering. Take care💕🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴

Sorry for the loss of the two Belgians.

I'm so glad your doing ok. So sorry for your loss. Your horses are looking amazing you all are doing a great job on their weight. You make a difference with all of them living their best life. Their furs are looking so shinny. God bless you and your rescues. Stay safe and resting too..

So sorry about your accident! We were all worried something (bad) had happened to you or the farm etc. because there was NO news anywhere. We are glad you are on the mend. God Bless!

So glad to have you back and delighted you have recovered well Julie. Always remember to take extra care around horses, they generally are not malicious, but the freedom you give them now, must be exhilarating for them, and accidents will happen. I think what you and Corey are doing is amazing, and have joy in watching the wonderful life in retirement, these great characters are receiving from the two of you. Life is now giving them freedom to run, be properly care for and fed well. You both, and your helpers, are doing a magnificent job. Katy xx

So sorry about your accident. God bless you and all at Fletcher Farms.💜😊💜

I love seeing the horses, but your health is more important than my peek into how things are going there. Please take care of yourself.

I hope you have no lasting side-effects, and heal completely. Belgians are huge, and can hurt you without meaning to. All the horses look great, Ava is a beauty! So sorry two are gone, but their last years were happy. I only hope I can say that at my end.

Thank you for saving her❤❤❤❤❤❤

Oh goodness. What a difficult time! So sorry about Charlie and Amelia. Charlie was able to live out his life in complete retirement with such care and companionship! You should be so proud of saving him. So sorry about Amelia. That did seem like a chronic issue for her. Thank you for taking good care of her. Remember....always give a Belgian the right of way.

So pleased you are back Julie and you are doing well - Charlie was my very favourite boy - there will always be sad days and loss because you rescue these beautiful retirees and they are mostly in their last few years of life - thank you for giving them happiness and peace.🙏💕🐴❤️🇦🇺

So happy you are back and feeling better. We missed you!

I'm so glad you are OK so sorry for your loss as well you and your hubby and team are all angels love you guys

I'D SAY THAT'S FLAT LAND. YOU'RE AMAZING,LOVELY,KIND AND BRING BACK THE HUMANITY WE SO CRAVE. DID YOU GIT SOME RAIN? WE'RE DRY IN OK AGAIN.

You have definitely had it rough and glad you are on the mend. RIP Charlie and Amelia❤

So glad you are on the mend. Thank you for the updates and video. 🙂

Be healed completely Dear Friend 💖🙏

It’s heartbreaking about Charlie and Amelia and I am so sorry for your loss. You gave them a wonderful life and they were happy in their retirement! I hope that you’re recovering well with no more issues. You are in my prayers

Julie I can’t imagine the pain of a concussion and thank God. It was a horses head and not his foot as my gosh I’m so glad you’re OK. I’m so upset over Charlie. He was a funny horse and a tough guy. Oh I can feel your pain. On losing him 😢 very sorry Amelia passing too they had a great retirement though 🥰❤️👍

I have been worried about you…so sorry for all you have been through…continued prayers. Please take care of yourself. Thank you for this update, glad you are better. Important to not do too much…listen to your body….

Concussions are no joke. It’s a good thing you took the time off.

We would never begrudge you taking time to care for yourself. Concussions are not easy to rebound from and can take even more time than you’ve taken up til now. Sorry to hear about Charlie and Amelia. Rip.

So glad your injuries weren’t worse and that your on the recovery road. Your new system of feeding seems more efficient and the horses are still thriving so good choice. Sorry for your loss of Charlie and the lady. Take care.

I'm so glad you're back. Sending prayers and best wishes for your continued recovery!!!

Have so missed you guys. So sorry about Charlie and Amelia I know the loss of a much loved family. So sorry to hear of your accident. Please take care of yourself. Prayers that you continue to recover. All the horses and donkeys are looking so good. Thanks for updating on all that's happened and hope all stays well.

We have missed you very much, but now we know the shocking reason for your absence my heart goes out to you. You are very precious to us, hope your recovery is study and take care of yourself darling...Best wishes from England UK 🇬🇧 ❤
