I was thrown from a horse and left with multiple broken bones, and my husband became my caretaker. When I envisioned my life with my husband, I thought I'd be well into my 80s before I'd need him cutting my food and helping me shower. I had an unwelcome glimpse into my old age when I was in an accident in May while riding a horse that left me with multiple broken bones and unable to walk. He stood there in the hospital ward, waiting for visiting hours to officially open, and would only leave my side when the nurses kicked him out. The trauma of being thrown at top speed from a galloping horse (when I am not a rider) was severe.

I've been a Swiftie since 2007, so you can imagine my absolute euphoria at getting my hands on tickets to the Eras Tour. Taylor's previous tours never came to South Africa, where I live, and the Eras Tour was no exception, with Africa left off the roster completely. I was left with a broken collarbone, broken ribs, and a massive hematoma in my right hip and thigh. Then, we watched Paramore for an hour before the three-and-a-half-hour Eras Tour.
