So sorry to hear about Brecken's knee. My daughter Rachel tore her ACL and meniscus this year and had surgery in Philadelphia in August. It is a long recovery, and we can totally relate with your family as you encourage Brecken to get stronger. Rachel had her surgery August 17 and missed her fall soccer season at HS. She will be out 1 year ... the recovery has been physically and emotionally demanding. She goes to physical therapy 3 times a week and is working hard to make her comeback. Like Laurie Hull's son (mentioned above), Rachel is now considering a PT/sports medicine career as well! We wish Brecken all the best! Hey, Lisa. So sorry to hear about Brecken’s knee.

My son detatched the flexor tendons from his right hand when he was playing football his sophomore year of high school. It was two surgeries and 9 months of therapy before he gained most use of it. It was a long road so I am feeling your pain. However, in the end, he went back to his sport and also because of his experience he decided on a career in sports medicine. He is just finishing up now and an intern right now at a D1 school working with athletes to help them! And his own experience has made him far more compassionate and when he says "I know what you are going through" he does! I know he would not have picked that career if he had not had had his accident. So who knows what good will come of a bad experience??? speedy healing! So sorry to hear about your daughter.

I've called every phone number on your contact page and no one is answering a phone - except a lady in customer service who couldn't help. Do you have an agent or press secretary I can contact? Thanks! Carol Hi Lisa,

I've had the ACL repair and the rehab is lengthy and arduous, but she is young and if she is as dedicated to that as she is her sports, she will do fine. Wishing Brecken a speedy recovery.
