GLOFISHER, that’s great feedback. I really appreciate it. My son has already looked into workouts etc that he can do minus the use of his arm. He’s been playing for so long that yes this will give him a different perspective for being removed for a year+. He’s always had a strong mental game on the mound so with the addition of long term rest, strong mindset to overcome and the focus of getting the ball again one day, this could really be turned into positive to help him grow and mature as a ball player and young adult.
Also still interested in more feedback on the recovery steps/milestones that occur along this road.
