OT: Update on Lauren

SusanWest1 · 2003-10-08T08:16:32+00:00

Lauren had a recheck on her foot/ankle yesterday and was NOT released to dance. She has 2 more weeks off continuing with ice packs. There is still swellingand bruising and some discomfort. Since there are only about 4 more footballgames, who knows if she will be performing in any of them. There is also FBA(Florida Bandmasters Association) competition which she probably will not beable to perform in either since she hasn't been able to practice. Hopefullyshe will be back to normal for Wintergard and be able to participate in that. I pray all this doesn't affect her eligibility for squad next year.She did tell the Dr that she had worn heals for about 8 hrs on Sat night(Homecoming Dance) and he said that it was probably really good for her becauseit changed the position of her foot and allowed some stress to be relieved fromthe tendons. Whew!I'll keep you posted on what the next checkup brings........Thanks for the continued prayersSusan

Well, that's ridiculous - didn't they already know other spots before she was hurt? Wouldn't they just go back to their original spots? How's Lauren feeling about it?

Sorry to hear that Lauren's team is not being very "teamlike". That is too bad. I am sure if it was them, they would want some "give" on their end.

Well, I'm with Dawn - if they knew it before Lauren got hurt, they will still know it when she gets back. It'll jsut take an extra practice or two to get thing sback to normal.

Tell her we're pulling for her. Kids can be so inconsiderate. How would they feel if it were them?!? We'll say some extra prayers jsut for this!

Renee >Thanks for all the encouragement ladies and Arleen, I'll say some extra

That takes a lot of nerve on their part. They really wouldn't like it if they were asked to do the same. I hope Lauren is recovering quickly. You do have a right to be upset. I'll keep you guys in my thoughts Susan.
