it's not just the dream of playing college ball that's hard to give up. or at least wasn't for me.
for me the hardest part is not playing ball anymore. during the season, I don't take my normal route home from work because I don't want to see the lights at the complex where we play.

and I think there is that, too. she wants to coach the game someday and she knows she needs to play in college to get to where she wants to go as a coach. With that said, I can't stand to see her in pain and I just want her to move on towards being a veterinarian...but I get it. I was not a talented athlete like she is but I know when I was told i needed a hip replacement and I would not play softball anymore it sucked.

whatever you do, make sure you do your homework and choose wisely.

until you have a bum shoulder, you don't realize just how much movement relies on that joint. even when you think you're not moving the shoulder.

mine is now pretty much permanently fucked because I didn't handle it right until it was too late. even if I choose surgery, at best I'm looking at a 50/50 shot at getting back to about where I'm at now as far as strength and range of motion. anything more would be considered a bonus. the pain relief would be a crap shoot for me as well.

now a "pain free" day for me is about a 3 on a scale of 1-10. I truly don't remember the last time I had a day I could say I was completely without pain or discomfort (other than the first couple days after my cortisone injection).

this is why I don't want her to have surgery...all I've read (see: Braxton Miller) is that one labrum surgery leads to 2 or 3 or...her pain is only from throwing and she has a solid rotator cuff...truth is by the time we are all in our 50's our labrums wear out any way...so it is possible that she would be completely fine if she just walked away...which is what I have advised. but you know 16 year olds...invincible and will live forever. lol
