My 14yo ds injured his knee this past Saturday while at baseball practice. Short story - he's having an MRI right now. Could you please pray for him and his care providers? Thanks and God bless you. I'll update when I can .

My ds got a second opinion this past Wednesday and we're looking at 6-8 weeks of more down time . Now ds knows that he will not be playing baseball in the biggest tournament of the year. Can you all hold him in your prayers for the next 8 weeks? Thanks so much.

12/23 update
Ds is back from the orthopedic dr. and we received no new bad news. He will continue to be in a brace for 4 weeks and will be checked again at that time to, hopefully, get cleared for PT. We had his other knee checked out and - good news - no tear there. We were concerned that he had the makings of a similar injury there.
Thanks for praying!
******************************
Update 1/20/2010:
He's been cleared for PT! Wooooooooooohoooooooooooo! He can test it for pain when running and jumping - pray for no pain! Thanks so much for your prayers - keep them coming for a complete recovery and that he can be strong for spring ball.
Love,

Thank you all! (sigh of relief)...no surgery . He'll see an ortho soon and we can expect some PT but this could have been much worse.

Whew!!!!
I'm so sorry I wasn't around to read this and pray in time, Angie, but what a relief to read the good news that surgery will not be necessary here! I'll add my prayers on the back end for uncomplicated healing!

Good news, Angie! So happy to hear the injury is not serious enough to require surgery--praying for him and his PT to go well.

Glad to hear that his injury is not as serious as expected. PT is a much better solution.

Thanks, all. Could you please keep up the prayers? We thought his injury was improving (and maybe it is) but my ds saw the ortho today for the first time and...ds needs to wear a brace for at least 2 weeks and has another appt on the 23rd. At that time we hope he'll be released to physical therapy. Ds needs to limit his mobility...and miss a whole lot of baseball and Christmas activities . Plus...he is a man, an athlete, this is a tough cross to carry.
We're so grateful because it could have been worse - phew! We're talking about ways to make the most of this down time. God is so good and His will is perfect...its this mama's heart that can faint at times like this .
Love,
