I have a couple of questions and looking for others that have a DD that might have had this injury.. So the end of high school season last year we find out that DD has a torn rotator cuff. Dr.1 says therapy for 6 weeks and she should be ok.. Well six weeks go by, we miss most of the summer travel ball session, but we still attend all games. No real improvement shoulder still hurts etc. So we get another opinion, Dr. 2 says rotator cuffs don't just heal with therapy unless there is no movement with the arm.. He says best course is surgery, so DD has it done 2 days before school (Aug.) She follows the therapy for the next 4 months.. Dr. releases her after thanksgiving, but she has no real power, which I understand because she hasn't really thrown in close to 6 months.. She can barely get it from third to first without a bounce.. Here is my dilemma we are supposed to go to a college visit at the end of this month and then the rising stars tournament the first week in Jan. But if she can't throw is there a point in going? This whole process has been frustrating for both DD and me.. Her travel team has been great about the whole situation, in saying she has a spot no matter what and not wanting to rush her back, but we are shelling out a lot of cash for the team then hotels, and gas, etc., but we she isn't getting any exposure and isn't that what travel ball is for.. I'm trying not to rush her back, but it is hard, her effort on the field is great, first in line to run, technique is great on all drills wants to attend all games and practices even though she can't play or do anything... Her strength is fielding, hitting we are working on, but if she can't throw, then should be just wait.. Anyone have any experience with this and how long it took their DD to throw normally??
