I am also very sorry to hear about Ryan's injury. Obviously he has a very positive attitude under the circumsatnces and with all of the prayers he will get from the HSBBWEB.....he should be back in no time.

rz1 Your son sounds like one fine young man; smart, talented and able to handle this "curve". Best wishes for complete recovery.

I want to thank all fellow websters for their prayers and well wishes. However, after jumping through the last HMO hoop next Monday it looks like we will meet the infamous Dr James Andrews in Mid-March.
This has been a very surreal experience where you try to find some reasoning for the injury. Before I could even address that with Ryan he said to me....
If attitude is good medicine, he'll do just fine.

Best of luck to your son. Sounds like he has gotten thru the psychological hurdle already.
Ryan has a great attitude and my money is on him coming back stronger than ever! 
rz very sorry to hear the bad news, Lets all hope for the best and include ya'll in our prayers.... Florida

Been thinking about how son was doing. He sounds like he has go it together.
From this pitchers parent your son is in my thoughts and prayers. We have been fortunate that son's injury was very minor compared to this.
Sometimes good comes out of bad, and do know that I have seen nothing but good stuff from the pitchers who have had TJS. With his attitude, he sounds like he is determined to move on and not feel sorry for himself.
