Reply to "Ugh, elbow injury..."

My son LHP of 2016 just had an MRA and has partially torn UCL.  Not good news.  This season is a downer and pretty much done.  He was supposed to get varsity action as P.  Felt pain his first bullpen after an8 hour practice 2 days before.  I don't think that was the sole cause, or that his bullpen was in 32 degree weather.  However, I'm sure it didn't help.

 

The positive is the his pain has significantly reduced and he has been on throwing shutdown since that point.  His ortho has said that if he can get to zero pain, then he can start throwing lightly to see if he can get backto throwing at a competive level.  Also positive his summer coach is supporting him 100%.  Encouragement in this situation is huge.  We hope he can be ready for his jr year but if surgery occurs it will probably be the first of the summer.  That would mean everything will ride on his sr year.
