See, my theory is that those hot headed TBs are mostly lazy as an irish bricklayer! I know my mare was 'hot' when we met, knew only two gaits: straight ahead on the forehand gallop and jiggy walk. Turns out that's because it's much harder to trot, and harder still to trot in balance! Took forever to fix it, with everyone around laughing because I'd tell her, over and over, "this is the way the grown up horses do it, grown up horses carry themselves, and don't fall on their noses..."
And the fear of what they'll find has a lot to do with having certain symptoms and certain worry markers for cancer: first degree relatives, smoking, bloody stools, etc. Too bad I'm uninsured, huh? This is in the catagory of reasonable enough fears that I can't do anything much about right now, so I'm in denial as the only rational way to handle it.
