Documentary Film
Bunny is Attached to the Anderson Sling
With
the
help
of
Roberta
Lieberman
and
Linda
Tellingon-
Jones
and
their
T-touch
techniques,
and
much
advice
from
Ridecamp
followers,
Bunny
was
able
to
survive
the
4
months
of
being
down
--
and
incredible
demonstration
of his will to live.
Once
he
was
physically
able
to
be
upright,
the
difficult
process
of
getting
him
back
on
his
feet
was
accomplished
with
the
use
of
the
Anderson
Sling,
which
was
generously
supplied
by
Alamo
Pintado
hospital.
Many
modalities
were
used
to
facilitate
his
recovery
including
the
Alphasonic
infrasound
device,
T-touch,
Reikki,
and
medications
for
his
decubitus
ulcers,
or
pressure sores.
Arduous Rehabilitation Begins
Bunny’s
journey
from
his
initial
injury
through
an
arduous
and
painful
rehabilitation
was
reported
in
many
horse
magazines, discussed in horse chat rooms, and followed by horse enthusiasts around the globe.
Although
video
taken
of
him
was
originally
intended
only
for
family
and
vets,
fans
of
Bunny
requested
that
the
story
of
this
horse’s
refusal
to
give
up
be
made
into
a
film.
Aired
on
Dish
Network
and
DirecTV,
his
tale
of
courage
has
touched
and
inspired
many,
who
have
challenges
of
their
own.
We
are
asking
a
donation
for
the
DVD
to
help
defray
the
cost
of
making the DVD and mailing it.

The Initial Injury
“Bunny,”
as
he
was
nicknamed,
was
running
in
pasture
one
night
and
ran
into
a
branch,
driving
a
3
inch
stick
into
his
head,
narrowly
missing
his
brain.
He
was
down
for
4
months
and
a
myriad
of
healing
techniques
were
used
to
prevent
pneumonia
and
infection.

full
heartwarming,
inspiring

heart wrenching story, as told by his owner asking for help with emails to Ridecamp, an international horse email group.
