Andy's Latest Injury

Well, he was so helpful up at school on Sunday. As soon as we left school, we went to his 1st men's soccer game for the fall season. I'm not sure how it happened, but right after the game started, I saw him on the ground grabbing his leg, in obvious pain. We think he either tore or pulled a calf muscle really bad. Although, reading up on the internet, it sounds like it could possible be an achilies pull or something. He kept describing it as the feeling of a pop and like someone shot him in the back of his calf. That's how a muscle tear is described online so there's a good chance it's torn and not just pulled.

For a muscle tear, everything we found on the internet said all you can do is ice and heat and it can take 2 months for it to fully heal. There goes fall soccer.

It's been 2 days and it's still hurting him pretty bad. At least he can walk... with a pretty good limp. Between his leg injury and my pregnancy aches, I'm sure we're quite a site to see when we're both walking, or should I say... wobbling, together!
