DD is physically and developmentally disabled, but very active. For us, when school starts (today) most of the autumn sports start up the same week.
She had a fall in July and had a severe break to her clavicle. It did not set, and has been quite slow to heal. Currently, it is healing, but the bone ends are not in contact. They are sitting one piece above the other, like an offset equals sign. The surgeon seems okay with this, as odd as it sounds.
This week baseball, sledge hockey, figure skating and gymnastics all start. We have been told by her surgeon that she is not to engage in activities that risk a fall, especially onto her shoulder, so while the activities start, she can't participate.
She desperately wants to attend. I have reminded her she cannot participate, but she is adamant that she still must go.
I have relented and agreed to take her, just so she can see her teammates again and watch the practices.
DH thinks I am wasting time, I contend that this will be the weekly routine for the next several months, so there is no harm in going.
What is your view on it all?
