One Hoof In The Grave [Carriage Driving 02] - Plot & Excerpts
Casey had been quite an athlete before she was paralyzed from the waist down. The moment she’d discovered there was an international Driving for the Disabled program, she decided to learn to drive. The fun show and clinic, scheduled weekend after next, was actually a benefit to help pay for a para-carriage and horse for her. Her veterinarian husband could afford to pay the expenses for the horse and carriage, but a specially built para-carriage, horse, harness and accessories amounted to a big chunk of change to pay out all at one time. Lackland Farm would keep any profit from the Sunday driving clinic, but the profits from the Saturday show would go to Casey’s fund. Casey hoped we could start a para-driving program in the area at some point using her horse and carriage. In the meantime, her husband Hank, who is our veterinarian, and Dick Fitzgibbons, had removed the seats from an old phaeton Dick picked up for a song at an auction in Pennsylvania, and fitted it so Casey could drive her wheelchair up a ramp into the cart.
