...continue to keep Courtney King-Dye in your prayers...

On March 5, Dressage Olympian Courtney King-Dye was working a young horse when the horse slipped. Courtney suffered severe head trauma as a result of the accident, and she is still in the UCU in a coma.

Courtney is poetry in the saddle. Perfect position, beautiful, quiet hands, and supreme balance. Whatever your faith may be, keep her in your prayers.

The question many wanted to know was: was she wearing a helmet? Unfortunately, she was not. Accidents happen no matter your discipline, no matter your skill level. Since Courtney's horrible injury, many in the dressage world gathered in solidarity to show off their spiffy helmets when mounted; to show their support and love of this wonderful rider and teammate.

Dressage Olympian, Robert Dover, posts frequent Courtney updates on his website: www.doversworld.com

Feel free to join Robert's powerful prayer circle by adding a comment on his page: I believe in a miracle for Courtney!

Stay strong, Courtney! We are looking forward to giving you a standing ovation when you return to the arena...
