Prayers for Toby

IMG_8740 Toby is having surgery on Friday to repair a "Slap Tear" in his right shoulder  Click Here for info on "Slap Tears".  We believe this injury was caused during a wrestling match on January 11.  This was one of Toby's Toughest matches.  It was a hard fought clean match.  However his opponent used Toby's arm as leverage.  Toby finished the season strong wining many matches but felt some pain each time.  We thought it would heal but it hasn't.  An MRI confirmed the tear.  Toby will be in a sling for 6 weeks and them have 3-4 months of Therapy rehab.   The doctor told him that he should be fixed up ready to wrestle in 6 months.  So he will miss football but should miss only a few weeks of wrestling.  His goal is to be ready right after Christmas.
