I feel bad for what happened to her and sincerely hope she gets better soon. I think it is silly to blame someone for getting on a horse as it is something people do every day.
However, I don't think anyone is wrong for questioning about asking for money. A lot of people don't really know her and many people also have never spoken to her. If I was in need of money, I doubt she'd have donated to me. I'm not trying to be mean, but I think it could have been approached a different way. I'm certain she doesn't need the money right this instance. An update on her condition, letting the board know, etc would have been a nice touch before asking for money. You will also get shit from people because she probably makes more than 95% of this board.
