For those of you that have been following the story of Savannah Hardekopf and her car accident. She is home now. 35 days after her accident. Savannah broke the exact same bones in her neck as CHRISTOPHER REEVES. She is alive and she will be able to walk again. She is a miracle kid. Her pelvis was pinned in 11 places and that is what prevents her from walking at this point. Long story shorten for those that did not get the first part. Savannah is an Oregon Fjord Club member. She was riding Fjords at my farm. Her plan was to perform vaulting with 2 other friends for our 2006 Expo in Albany, OR in March 06. On 8-7-2005 she was in a car accident. The car landed on her and "crushed" her pelvis, neck, broke her jaw, lacerated her liver, damaged her spleen, and so on. She should have been dead. The doctors say she is 1 out of 50 Million to survive this type of injuries. she is 1 out of 50 million to be able to walk again. Anyway. she is now home in a wheel chair and going back to school. Savannah is determined to graduate on time and to go to VET School. This is where you come in. We (Oregon Fjord Club) established a medical fund / college fund. this fund is to help pay the hundred of thousands of dollars of medical bills her family is occurring. If and I say IF there is anything left over, it will go to her college education (VET SCHOOL). We have been selling raffle tickets for a yearling gelding at $5.00 each or 6 for $25.00. We need your help in selling more to make our goal to help Savannah. On 8-1-2005 we sent out letters with our goal to raise money for the club and the NFH Foundation. We still will give money to both these endeavors however; we want to be able to give some money to the medical fund. I know with your help we can do all three. If you are willing to help us we do appreciate it. You may contact Amy Evers at fjordAmy @ aol.com (no spaces) or me at lassesen @ citlink.net . We can set you up with some posters and tickets to sell. The gelding is a very nice put together colt. He is out of my mare Lupin who is very performance talented and the full brother to our stallion. The person that wins this gelding will be VERY HAPPY. He is quality in every sense of the word. I am not as good as others in fluffing up my breeding talents. but this colt will place well in conformation and in performance once trained. He is just a yearling and he does anything I ask him to do as a yearling. Thank you for your time.
