We've missed you buddy!
Ditto x 10. Surreal to have a huge part of your life ripped out from underneath you. And the word (and concept) of Huge doesn't even come close to describing it.
We've missed you buddy!
Glad you are back....Heard you enjoyed your time off at Mammoth every other weekend. I'm very happy your daughter made a full recovery.Hello All. Soccer18 here. Well - July 31st 2016 - 1 year ago is when it all happened. Surgery (ACL replacement on August 10, 2016), rehab, physical therapy, more MRI's, movement training, personal training, and so on and so on.......... And NOW - she's back. Feels like we've been through hell - not just my daughter, but our whole family. She's been training with the team and will be down at Surf Cup getting some minutes.
I'll tell you folks - I'm scared as all HELL. It's somewhere between I don't want to watch her play and I have to watch her play. I'm not sure how this is all going to work out for me.
For her - she is so damn excited and anxious to play that it almost makes me feel like it's all going to be ok.
I'm really looking forward to seeing all of you (my friends) out there again. I've missed you ...... and I've missed the game.
Crossing my fingers.

Regardless of what comes of this whole soccer "experiment" and journey my DD is on, the one thing I will cherish forever is that look on her face, that look that exists within the moments in between the madness of it all. The trips for ice cream, the downtime between games, the laughs, the face painting, the water balloon fights, the coaches with the crazy green hair and the green SOLO cups...Hello All. Soccer18 here.

It's been a quite a ride and if friendships, memories, and life lessons is all my daughter takes from this game, it'll be worth every penny.
@Soccer18 you and your DD epitomize what my family loves about this community. Looking out for one another and banding together when you need it the most. I was so thrilled to see your DD out there at FWR, making the trip with her team and having something to come back to. We're all excited to have her back, doing what she loves and having you and your famly loving what she does!
See you out on the pitch good friend, sit back and enjoy the moment and continue to be there for your DD as you've always done! Cheers!
