Ryan is finally scheduled to have his right shoulder fixed – October 16, 2007 is THE day. He’s dislocated it four times since April and each time he’s not been doing anything out of the ordinary.<\/p>\n

It appears Ryan inherited my flexibility as I had the same problem in the late 1990’s. For me, the problem went on for two years, primarily because I figured out how to pop it back in myself.<\/p>\n

Each time Ryan dislocates his shoulder, it is a trip to the ER and they have to put him under what they call conscious sedation<\/a> in order to put it back in.<\/p>\n

Frederick A. Matsen III, MD<\/a> will be his surgeon. Dr. Matsen is also the surgeon who fixed my shoulder so I’m very confident Ryan’s in the best hands possible. Dr. Matsen will be doing a Bankart repair<\/a>, which is the exact same procedure I had.<\/p>\n

I will be staying in the hospital with him and then working from home for a few days while he recovers.<\/p>\n

While we believe Ryan’s epilepsy is now under control, the doctor said he can permanently damage his shoulder if he has a seizure while they are working on it.<\/p>\n

Light a candle and gather ’round guardian angels!<\/p>\n
