Ryan Breaks His Ankle

Church league sports.  Where grown men and women think they can still do the things they could when they were in their teens.  Someone always ends up hurt.  Heart Attack, bulging discs and in our case, a broken ankle. 





 During practice Ryan went to spike the ball and as he came down he landed wrong on his ankle causing some excruciating pain due to some torn ligaments and some broken bones.  He passed out a couple times before the ambulance got there.  They medicated him up really good on the ride to the hospital.  So good that it dropped his blood pressure really low.  But there wasn't any pain!




Making a trip to TOA to see Dr. Rungee and have x-rays and MRI's and casts put on.  


They twins came with us while Liam was in school.  They did so well!


 The bruise


The swelling

I'm not quite sure who even won the tournament but it doesn't matter because we still had a good time.  Who wouldn't with the name Hope Dealers (Helping Others Prosper Eternally) 


Ryan's first cast had to be removed due to it getting wet during a storm.  Luckily we were able to get get in that afternoon and have it changed.  


He went from UT orange to Christmas Spirit!


He gets to spend roughly 8 weeks in a cast, non weight bearing.  Then four weeks in a cast with a shoe then hopefully to a boot.  Its difficult with 3 kids and being non weight bearing.  He is doing well and adapting to his situation - most days :P
