catcher27mom, thank you for sharing your son's experience. His pitching seems to mirror what many here and in other areas say is quite normal. And, you're right, the best we as parents can do is to be there for them.

20dad, thank you. You are also right. The best advice we're getting from virtually everyone is to allow the rehab to proceed at its own pace. We need to take a very long view and allow the ligament to heal and "learn" its new job. If that means son's senior year looks very different from what we expected before this...then that is the way it has to be.
