RJ had a ball in Vegas! It was also his first time flying in an airplane and it was quite scary at first, he said. His coach said he looked like he was going to be sick. A few days before he left, he began complaining of a sore back and he also had some swelling in his hip. Inspired by the arrival of my long-awaited for Texas Massage License, I did what I had been trained to do. I dug out the Kinesio tape and I taped him up! Oh, and I sent him with a bottle of pain reliever, hoping he wouldn't really need it.
He said it really helped. He asked me was it the Placebo Effect. I laughed and told him not to question the why as long as it was doing it's job.
His team lost the first game, won the next five games, and then lost in the Elite 8. I was a crazy woman all over Twitter trying to see what the scores were! Next year I will definitely be there! I was able to send him off with $160 donated to him by two of my friends. THAT was a blessing! He even had money left over when he came home.
After 20 years of homeschooling 4 kids as a single mom, I only have 1 left in school and she chose boarding school 2,138 miles from home. I’m hoping to revive this blog to help pay for her tuition, because a blessing is needed to keep her there. I owe $15,000 & I want her to be able to graduate from that school. She has earned scholarships for her junior and senior year, but her sophomore year, I pledged to pay using blind faith. I just wanted to support her in her educational pursuit!
Awesome that you were able to fix him up!
ReplyDeleteAnd awesome that two friends came through!!
Yes, it really worked for him! And I don't know what I would have done if they didn't help :)
