Ultimate Future?

Well I went back to the doctor last Wednesday and apparently my fracture was worth than they thought. I fractured my scaphoid and the doc. told me that I would have to be in a cast for 3-4 months or I could have surgery and the recovery time could be from 4-6 weeks. So obviously I decided to go with the surgery.

I dont really know what to say, when the doctor told me I kinda broke down, just thinking about how I might not get to play with my team ever again. If everything works out pefectly I could potentially be back right at Sectionals time, but then I wouldn't have thrown a frisbee for about 2 1/2 months, so I don't know how effective I could be. If we make regionals I intend to play there, thats IF everything goes well and I'm healed. Apparently the scaphoid is one of the worst bones in the body to heal due to the lack of blood flow, so they're putting a pin in on Thursday. Then comes the decision to even play this spring or not, I dont want to ruin my ultimate career forever. This also leads to my decision on club, right now I don't know if I'm going to play this summer, I'm just a little nervous about doing something to it again and then having it effect me for the rest of my life. I dunno, right now all this shit sucks, I was looking so forward to this spring season and now it's basically all taken away.

I dont know if I can workout and run after my surgery, or if I have to wait a little bit to do it, we'll see. So, my surgery is on Thursday at 1:30, my first ever surgery so I'm a little nervous, and I hate needles for the life of me so the Anesthesia will not go well. If you wanna leave a good luck comment for me or something I'd appreciate it.

Take care,

David
