A Pennsylvania Coach Fri Feb 20, 2004 01:58pm

A player from my team, a junior and my best player, underwent emergency brain surgery Monday morning. They've determined that it was an burst blood vessel, and they've got no reason to believe it was anything but random. At this time, she's out of the woods as far as survival goes, but there are still some long-term concerns about speech, vision, and motor skills. All signs are good, but more prayer would be appreciated for all involved.

Best wishes, Coach. Tough sitch for anybody, let alone a kid.

Hi coach

I'll pray. I know how it is too loose a great player. Not long ago Stevnsgdade(Denmark) lost talented Ken Drayton in an age of 19 'cause of a heartattack.

I'll keep you in my prayers.

Best wishes

Coach,

You can add me to the list of those praying as I had to attend a funeral this morning for a friend of mine that suffered a brain anurysum(sp?) about 2 weeks ago. She was 38 and leaves 3 children.

It is good to hear that your palyer is out of the woods as I now know first hand how dangerous and devestating something like this can be.

Please keep us informed as to the progress and if there is anything we can do like contributions to a fund etc...

dhodges007 Tue Feb 24, 2004 02:11pm

Me too. Let us know how she is doing.

A Pennsylvania Coach Tue Feb 24, 2004 04:45pm

She was discharged yesterday and is home resting. The doctors said it was amazing--as of Friday they were expecting her to recover and most likely fully, but over the course of weeks or months. She still has 46 staples in her head holding the incision closed until it heals, and more therapy to go through, but there is no more danger. Thanks so much for all of your thoughts and prayers!

Adam Tue Feb 24, 2004 04:57pm

Coach,
