Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

Mary has had a bit of an adventure lately. At volleyball practice, she broke her foot 9 i am not good with the details, but basically, the outside toe was broken, So, Thursday, she had to get minor surgery to place a pin in the side of her foot. It is about an inch long titanium pin. We got to see her today for a little while (not nearly long enough, but better than not at all) and her foot was still numb and healing well. She will be on crutches for 6 weeks, then back onto the court. Luckily it happened now and not during the season! And she is really doing well--although, now as the numbness wears off, she may not be doing so well :( She is a trooper and a strong young woman. She will heal well and be back on her feet in no time!

Oh dear! Please pass on our love to her. We hope she heals very quickly and that it doesn't effect her future volleyball playing.

No--it should be all better before season starts and her coach has assured her that the libero position is still very much her's and anyone who wnats to challenge that is going to have to try to beat her out--not gonna happen! :)
