Really???


We got the results of Grace's MRI today. Her little fall from the fence tore her ACL. No wonder her knee hurts! She's probably looking at surgery and rehab once she gets out of school. Not exactly how a 14 year old wants to spend her summer!
Wonder if I could convince her to let me teach her to knit?

Ouch! A 14-year-old being laid up with a torn ACL? Not a fun way to spend the summer. I hope you can teach her to knit.

Aww - poor thing. Hope she recovers well.

Bummer! There's lots of good books to read out there. Maybe she could embroidery or crosstitch. Just keep telling her she doesn't want this summer to get away from her and she'll want to have something to show for it. You'll need prayers too and LOTS of patience...

Ouch! Knitting is a great idea -- tell her all the cool girls are doing it!!!

Oh my! Poor Grace.

Yes yes! Teach her to knit! And rent DVDs. And have fun with it. It's not every year that a teen *gets* to spend each moment of her summer vacation at home. ;-) Someday, you'll all look back on it with smiles.

Carolyn, I'll bet Grace will let you teach her to knit.....or something like that. I remember when she was a little one "needing" her own FQ's!! :>) She is young and will bounce back quickly! Will be thinking of you both - keep us posted!
