Player Down

Tonight we traveled to Moore Haven for Angela's softball game. Unfortunately as the game began so did the rain. We sat in the dugout for 15 minutes before the rain stopped. Then it was time to play ball. In the first inning with Angela at first the batter hit a fly ball to her. She called the ball but missed it so she started to run after it and in the process turned her knee. Down she went with a scream. After finally getting her calmed down the assistant coach carried her to the dug out and put ice on it. The other team had called for an ambulance, but once we looked at it closely we decided to ice it down and call of the ambulance request. She toughed it out in the dugout through the rest of the game and cheered her team to victory (9-7). Luckily we have crutches from previous injuries and will see if the swelling goes down tomorrow. If not we will call our primary care physican and get a referral to the peditratic orthopedist in Fort Myers.
