Audrey's volleyball season was unfortunately cut short, as she hurt her knee one day in PE. She was jumping sideways to do a warm up and felt a burst of pain. After collapsing down, she visited the nurse at school where swelling was noticed. After a trip to Urgent Care, an x-ray, many weeks on crutches, a much later MRI, and an appointment with an orthopedic doctor, it has been determined Audrey fractured her kneecap and also experienced a sprain.
Now many weeks later, things are healing, and Aud is doing physical therapy. The structure of her kneecap will make her prone to more injuries in the future. We will cross our fingers this can be avoided! It hasn't been the easiest experience for our girl, but she has showed a fairly positive attitude. 😊
