Basketball is Brutal



Well, I guess I was wrong, my injury wasn't enough...Jessica was at basketball practice this morning. She is working very hard with the team. She runs fast, passes hard and best of all is the rebound queen.
Well, I don't know how, and she doesn't really understand how it happened either, but the ball hit the same finger she broke earlier this year - causing immediate pain. He coach told her, "Jessica get back in the game, sometimes you have to play in pain...she was crying (which is something she doesn't do in front of people unless she can't control it). She was allowed to get taped up, before coming back to play for the rest of the practice.
Later that day we took her to the doctor. To our surprise, her finger is broken, but it's in a different spot than the first break. Actually, the first break has healed nicely.
Well, that's not all - during try-outs Jessica was elbowed in the eye (she doesn't even know who did it), and it gave her a black eye.
Our poor beautiful young lady is beat up, but she still has a positive attitude and a smile on her face.
