Liliana was in the barn, deeply bathing one of her heavily pregnant mares; a silver-grey Quarter horse mare, who was due in a week. "There we go." She murmured, deeply scrubbing the mare, udders included.

Marco had also grabbed a long lunge line, sending Nirvana out in a big circle around him, getting him to keep a steady lope throughout it.
|
|  |
|
| |

|
Liliana was suddenly hit with a dizziness spell, and a paralyzing spell. She couldn't feel the lower part of her body, she couldn't move anything. "Oh, God..." She muttered, holding herself up by a stall door.
|

|
Marco was walking Nirvana in, pulling his halter off and turning him back out in his stall when he saw her, rushing over as he kicked the door close. "Lil-" He started, panic flooding him. "are you okay?"
|

|
"I was fine, j-just giving a mare a bath. Next thing I know, I get dizzy, and lose feeling to my bottom half of my body." She responded, sweating. "What the fuck happened, to cause a reaction like that?"
|
|  |
|
| |

|
"Can you move at all?" He asked, hands already outwards to catch her in case she fell.
|
|  |
|
| |

|
"Uh-uh." She responded. "I can't feel anything. Not even my damn toes, which sucks."
|
|  |
|
| |

|
"It okay if I carry you in?" He asked, noting the mare she was washing was clean, and mostly dry, turning her back out.
|
|  |
|
| |

|
"Yeah, go ahead. I don't weigh too much." She responded, trying to make a joke.
|
|  |
|
| |

|
Marco didn't catch the joke, slipping an arm beneath her knees and her back, scooping her up easily and carrying her inside, setting her down on the couch and getting a cup of water for her.
