After a horse related accident and diagnosis with Myasthenia Gravis, an autoimmune disorder that weakens muscles, Bob Nervig did not think he would ever return to working with horses, let alone competeting at the prestigious 2009 Villa Louis Carriage Classic in Prairie du Chien, WI after only five months of carriage instruction with Michelle Blackler. He says it really was a dose of 'serendipity' that got him on the box seat again. |
