So, I actually ran 1/4 mile - 1st time in my life!!!    Then ended up in the ER; my 16yr old son took a baseball to the face over his right eye playing after school with his JROTC team.  Has a nasty concussion and out of school & PE for the next few days.  ~sigh~.

    Congrats on the run and ouch on the rest.  Concussions are nasty stuff. You're the second person today I've heard of whose son has had a concussion.  Yuck!!  Take care!

    LOVE JROTC.  Made a huge difference in my DS' life, although he dropped it sophmore year.  (Much longer story)  Do they have a drill team?  I loved when he was doing drill, the team spirit was incredible.  The bringing him to school for 0530 practice, not so much. 

    Hope your DS is doing ok.
    Congrats on the quarter mile.  If I ran 1/4 mile, it would be ME in the ED,  ~Donna

    All is well with the kid, has a nice shiner starting to bruise up and a killer headache.  He's happy & content in bed with his laptop and some meds for nausea & headache. Was a bit scary, he doesn't remember anything after 3pm yesterday.  Did a CAT scan and he checked out o.k.  Memory to return in a few days, so Doc says.

    Donna ~ yes to the drill team - I'm a JROTC mommy.    He's actually on several teams - drill, rifle, saber & orienterring (sp?).  He competed in Nationals in Phoenix a few months back - team took 3rd in the nation!  I love to watch the knockout events - he always does awesome in them and they are very cool to watch!  :)  Of course, I got drug into the JROTC program too - booster club. :)
