Today is a day of celebration. Alex's two tears are healed. Alex has been cleared to resume her gymnastics (with some restrictions). She has been out for 6 months of no lower body training.... she is so ready to be back. We are thankful that she was able to continue bars and gain some ground there.
She will need to start back slow. She needs to continue her physio, acupuncture and laser 3 times a week.
Just found in MRI: She has an "edema in the superolateral aspect of Hoffa's fat pad with a shallow trochlea. Which is basically a knee cap that won't stay in place which could continue to give her some knee problems until she strengthens her VMO muscle. Small knee brace for now but not for too too long. This is not life threatening - but could cause her some discomfort. So we will play this by ear...
This is such exciting news....she knows she has a lot of catching up and hard work ahead of her....
Thank you all for your support. We are overjoyed that she is back..... Thanks
