Just a vent to all my understanding Chalk Bucket friends!~
As you may remember in all the way back in September Beetle was having great practices was "this close" to her shootover and moving to L9 and then broke her Ankle. She was out for 5 weeks.
A couple weeks ago she was having great practices, got all of her L8 skills back after the injury and some of the L9 skills. Stood up her vaults on her own for the first time! Then injured her Hip Flexor and had to take a few days off and slow down for a couple weeks.
This week she has had a great week! Standing up all her vaults on her own, Turning piriouettes on TOP of the bar and hitting her handstands! And even moved her flight back up to the high beam (She was having a mental block on it.. again.. ). Her coach judged their routines on Wednesday, she got a 8.75 on Vault, 9.0 on Bars 9.1 on Beam ( with flight on low beam) and a 9.1 on floor. They have Judges Mock Meet a week from today.. she got to practice yesterday feeling confident and focused... Do you guys know what comes next? Can you tell from the above pattern?
Yep, you guessed it... She was doing conditioning, running... Pivoted during her run.. put all her weight on the back foot and pop goes her Ankle. The OTHER ANKLE! The 'Healthy' one!
Being a 14 year old girl.. she immediately collapses and starts sobbing... she was so upset taht I couldn't tell if it hurt that bad or she was just worried about the season.. the ankle was really swollen so I brought her to the ER. THANKFULLY, it is just a sprain.. but she is on crutches AGAIN..and out of practice AGAIN.. The Doctor thinks she should be fine in a week or so, just sore but I don't know how much more of this I can handle...
So if I could request ALL fairies to be sent to MN? Specifically - The SUPERFAST healing fairy and a NO MORE INJURY Fairy! and a wine maker fairy for Mom to relax!
