Update on Morgan

We went back to the Ortho Dr. yesterday and he gave us the sad news. The MRI shows that her PCL is completely torn with possible tearing to the ACL, lots of bruising and fluid, etc. She will need surgery to repair her knee. We go see an Orthopedic Surgeon that specializes in Sports Medicine in Duluth (NE Atlanta area---and near our home) next Wednesday. He's already reviewed her MRI report and also says she needs surgery. We're hoping it can be orthoscopic. From what we hear, she's looking at 6-8 weeks on her crutches/immobilizer. We'll find out more what to expect next week. Thanks everyone for your calls and emails to check on her. Will keep you updated.

I'm sorry to hear that. Our prayers will be with her, the medical care in ATlanta is so good, though. I'm sure she'll be ok. Keep us updated.
