Many of you may have seen this on Facebook but I wanted to post here as I know folks here would like to know, and don't do Facebook.
Friday afternoon, before the 1st game of the season, Dane and a teammate collided in practice and the result for my son was a broken jaw. Their game Saturday was in Odessa and he rode with the team from New Mexico State to there where we met up with him. We went hoping to watch him play but instead got to watch him watch his teammates.
Friday morning, he will have his jaws wired shut. He will be in that state for 6 weeks. His meals will consist of anything we can convert to liquid and he can stomach to eat THROUGH A SYRINGE!. I'm hearing he can expect to lose 10-15% of his body weight. He's here for the rest of the semester and we're hoping the time flies by for him...and for us.
If you're so inclined, keep Team Morris in your prayers. He was really excelling on the field and had a bright season ahead of him. He'll bounce back but this next 6 weeks might be a bit rough for a kid that enjoys his meals!
