So Sad :(

Cole was having problems at practice yesterday. He was swaying and not really following what the coaches were saying. He had to work last night at school and wanted to go the volleyball game so he asked us to wait until today to take him in. We kept a close eye on him all night and woke him every 2 hours. I was waiting to get something thrown at me but he handled it well. We took him into the pediatrician to see if he had an inner ear infection because he has a bad cold. He ended up with a CT scan for a concussion. Thank goodness there's a brain that is perfect. This dr. was trying to tell us he had a severe concussion and he would be out at least a month or 2. Poor Cole just lost it. The Dr. said to him "Well there's always next year" (as Cole sits there with SENIOR written across his chest) After we told him he was a senior and this was it the dr just replied "Oh well" I thought Cole was going to come unglued. We took him after school to see the sports med. Dr. that saw him on the side lines on Fri. he told us he would be able to return once he was 7 days symptom free. Cole's a little better. He will miss this week and will hopefully be back next. Right now there are 5 guys (4 seniors and 1 jr) out. 3 starters. He's got good company on the sidelines. Sounds like Bill's thinking of suiting up Kyle for the varsity game on Fri. I hope Kyle doesn't stroke over this. We'll see if it happens.
