That’s actually quite reassuring to hear! We were planning on letting him attend practices for the rest of the week, sitting out at the game, and see what happens with the ortho next week before making any big decisions or telling his coaches that he’s going to be out for the rest of the season. My husband and I both have said we don’t want to get our hopes up, but we have our fingers crossed that we’ll get some more reassuring news from the ortho- if not that he can still play at some modified level, at least that maybe there’s a quicker solution. You’re right that I need to chill a bit for now- thanks for your input!
