Jamos, can you give us an update on your grandson?  Hope all's well.

Yes I talked with him just a short while ago. His knee is better but he's still have some headaches. He's been laying around but he went to church today hoping that moving around some will get the stiffness out of his neck and shoulder area as well as his knee. He said he had some swelling on the outside of his knee but he has been icing it and the swelling is much better now. His mother is taking him to a Dr in the morning and I think it is the knee Dr. He's hoping as each day goes by the headaches will decrease but his mother is keeping an eye on that as far as the severity of the headaches. If he has headaches in the morning I'm sure his mother will take him to his GP for a checkup and referral if necessary.

Thanks to all of you for your concerns and prayers, it has meant a lot to all of us.

Definitely he should see the GP.  Thank you for sharing.

Please keep us updated, J.

Some of you have asked for an update on my grandson. He is here at our house tonight and we've had a chance to sit and talk some. The headaches are the main thing with him right now, his knee is feeling much better though. They have an appointment with the Dr. Thursday morning if he is still having the headache problem.

The coaches are keeping a close eye on him as well as his teachers in the classrooms. It seems that time might be the best dose of medicine for him right now, I think a lot of it is a mental thing with him and sometimes you don't get over that as quick as you would like. He did hear about the young man dying from a big collision in a game last week and that shook him up some. He says he's ready to get back on the field and that's what I would expect to hear from him, he loves his sports. 

All of you have been great and thanks again for all of your thoughts, kind words, and prayers.

Still praying for him, J. Hope the headaches go away.

[Chechem]

Thanks for the update.  I'm sure the physician gave instructions, but (just in case) no aspirin for a concussion, right?  Increased risk of bleeding. 

I know, I know, we're all parents.

It's good for everyone to watch for any change. Y'all are probably giving him the headaches fussing over him. He'll be OK and you'll be worrying about something else he's doing by next week. The woman says to watch his appetite. RTR Jamos.

I wanted to give all of you the latest on my grandson. We finally got all of the testing on him done and the MRI showed no signs of any disc problems in the neck area. The Dr said that he had gotten a pretty good concussion and that was the reason for his headaches.He warned my grandson about concussion injuries and future problems fron concussions and released him. My grandson and I talked and he said he only had one year of high school left and he really loves football and wanted to play some more. We talked about the his injury and the consequences but he said he can't go through life in fear, what could I say as long as he knows.

Thanks again to all of you for your thoughts and prayers.

That is great news!

He sounds like he is pretty level headed.  I know some full grown adults that would do well to heed his advice about fear.

My grandson was playing on his high schools kick off team last night and a defender hit him with a crack-back block wich flipped him high in the air. He went high in the air and landed head first. He was transported to the hospital and I was there pretty late but the test came back negative on the scan. He has some pain in his right knee and was still had a headache whenb they released him at the hospital. He will have further tests this coming week.

I was amazed at the people that came to the hospital to check on his status after the game. The referee that saw the play and threw the penalty flag came to the hospital as well and told us that he saw him come down awkward on the play. He said he had to follow the play until it ended but kept looking back at him with concern.

We all take a lot for granted as we watch these young men play the sport, as most of us played football, but as we wish for someone to really hit the opposing player hard, you never know what the consequences might be after the play is over. After my grandson gets over his soreness though, he will be right back out there trying to make another tackle and he wouldn't have it any other way.

Hope he gets over his soreness soon. Glad he is o.k..
