THANKS FOR THE RESPONSE. BELIEVE ME ,WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR THE EASY WAY OUT.WE WERE HOPING FOR THE QUICKEST TO GET HIS SENIOR YEAR BACK SO HE COULD PLAY A FEW GAMES. I KNOW THE LARS SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE BUT IT WOULD NOT BE A EASY THING. FIRST OFF WE WOULD HAVE TO TRAVEL QUITE FAR TO EITHER EUROPE OR CANADA THEN WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY SINCE THE INSURANCE WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT THERE. THE EASIST WAY OUT IS TO DO WHAT THE DOCTER HERE IN THE STATES TELLS US TO DO AND DO NO RESEARCH ON IT. AND i AM NOW RESEARCHING FURTHER. WE ARE SEEING A GREAT ORTHO IN SACRMENTO CA ON WED AND WE WILL EITHER GO THE HAMSTRING OR PATELLA ROUTE AND HE WILL JUST HAVE TO FIGHT HIS WAY BACK AND GO TO A JUNIOR COLLEGE NEXT YEAR WITHOUT STATS. I KNOW IT MAY SOUND SO STUPID THAT WE ARE CRYING BECAUSE HE CAN NOT PLAY FOOTBALL BUT HE HAS WORKED SO HARD FOR THIS AND THE SAD THING IS , IT WAS HIS TEAM MATE THAT TACKLED HIM JUST FOR THE "fun" OF IT. HE HAD NO PADS ON WHICH HE ALSO SCREWED UP HIS SHOULDER AND WAS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE IN THE DEFENSE PRACTICE BUT THANKS TO THE GREAT COACH WE HAVE..........ANYWAY, YEAH I AM BITTER BUT I KNOW THAT WILL PASS AND FOOTBALL OR NOT I WANT HIM TO BE HEALTHY AND LIVE A HEALTHY PAINLESS LIFE ,NOT UNLIKE EVERY MOTHER OUT THERE. AGAIN THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY AS I AM NEEDING ALL THE ADVICE AND SUPPORT I CAN GET!!!
