BB is coming up again. Last year DD aggravated her chronic foot Issue and missed ½ of the softball season. At the end of the BB season she was running with 1 leg and dragging her other leg behind her. In hind sight she should have stopped playing BB towards the end of the season, she probably still would have missed ½ the softball season.
DD wants to play BB again this year. Doctor says it is OK, she just needs to willing to tolerate the pain. Of course she might end up in a cast again and miss some of the softball next year. She occasionally limps around the softball field too, BB is just worse.
DW and I are not comfortable she is going to survive the entire season. If she does play she does not need or want any special consideration.
Last spring’s Softball Manager was disappointed to learn after she joined the Team that she was going to miss all the preseason practice and x amount of games. We should have communicated better before she joined the Team. He was left scrambling looking for another player.
Would like to communicate better this year, both in BB and softball but am not sure how to go about it.
If we tell the coach before the season we are worried she will be treated differently which we do not want. If we discuss with the commissioner so that they can make sure the Team has the proper # of players we are pretty sure they will talk to the coach. DD might be fine and make it thru the entire season our confidence level is not really high.
In order to be fair to the Team I think at a minimum we need to discuss with commissioner and take our chances. Any thoughts on all this besides maybe should not play BB? Doctor says it is OK and DD knows the risks and what she is in for.
