Dereks Shoulder Surgery

Last Monday night while Derek was training his shoulder dislocated again :( So he had to go into the emergency room a second time and have his shoulder put back in. After this happened the first time Derek was doing a ton of physical therapy and really trying to strengthen his should to hopefully avoid surgery. Since it happend a second time we knew that we had no choice that his shoulder needed to be operated on. So he had surgery today. They rapaired his Labrum which was completely torn and tighened the ligaments around the shoulder. So all in all the surgery went great, but he will be in a sling for 6 weeks and then slowly doing physical therapy and strengthening his shoulder. He is pretty bummed to be in for another surgery but he is excited to have it fixed so it wont dislocate again. Poor guy!!!!!!!!!
