Have had it since I was about 8. That's why I chose to ride horses for a living!! Still it has not stopped me from working with and riding, race horses, polo, showjumping and teaching. Have worked in Italy, Spain, U.S.A (nearly died), Germany and France. Yes the U.K too!

Have also worked in hotels, restaurants as chef, barman, waiter. Though now since return from U.S has been hard to find work and have had too many seizures locally. Word gets round! Now desperate for work. Medicine was out of date and dosage not good either. Now back on track but word is still around.
