Life as a Quadriplegic After Horse Riding Accident

Does anyone thinks she’s incredibly gorgeous??

The moment she touched the horse I was in tears this shows she doesn't blame it on the poor animal ,she accepted and moved on and is surviving

My father was quadraplegic due to polio at age 2. The best dad a girl cold ever have

Stay strong. I’m a quad of 45 years. You will be amazed as what you will be able to do. Love you

I keep seeing these comments on her appearance... yes she is a stunner, but her personality and grit is fricken phenomenal.

"am I still lovable" That broke my heart.

It really hit home when she said she was 19. I'm 19. God bless her.

they are obviously wealthy and it's great to see just how nice and humble her and her family are

"Am I still lovable?" Yes

" your legs stop but your life goes on." What a great attitude

The sadness in the horse's eyes when looking at her. I can tell it is sorry for what happened.

In a world full of soulless celebrities, this beautiful person Sophia should be worshipped and celebrated the world over. Love from the UK.

Even her bed hair look like a beautiful victorian aristocrat girl

I admire how incredibly resilient you are. I had a dving injury and I am a c5/6 Tetraplegic, yet I have been riding since I was 5. I was completely dependent when I came home from the hospital but worked hard and slowly rebuilt my independence. It took 2 hours to out my pants on, now its 4-5 minutes. I learned to shower, transfer, cook, drive and finally live without assistance. I met the love of my life and got married two years ago. He sees me, not the chair.I am currently working on my Ph.D in Clinical Psychology. Nothing is impossible and life is full. Laugh when you want to cry and never say no to an invitation. Just keep being you beautiful. Im excited to continue to watch your journey. Much love, stay strong

I didn’t realize that being a quad included any mobility at all. Im glad that she can use her arms. And what a strong, determined young woman.

I saw sadness’s in that horses eyes. She is a beautiful person.

I love Mom's transition to the country and gardening...in heels. She has a great attitude too, and so supportive. No wonder Sophie's attitude and strength are so great. Not to take away from what she does and what she has been through.

The intro of her going back to the location of the accident, and meeting the horse she fell from again was so powerful and emotional...

My husband is a C-4 C5 Quad. I have been loving him and helping him physically for almost 40 years. We met when we were in our mid 20’s and have been together ever since. We have a rather hard life physically speaking compared to the average, but LOVE CONQUERS ALL. It is possible to have a very fun exciting and fulfilled life with meaning, it just depends on how one looks at life. If you have a good attitude and you try you will go far. That goes for the caregiver and the disabled people as well. Life is what you make of it.

She has left me speechless, Beauty, personality sense of humor, and a love of life how could you not be motivated around her
