This time it happens to be my younger brother, Tim.  And, I do not envy his injury.  Tim, our prayers are with you for quick healing.

Fortunately, I got to see his game last week.  Unfortunately, there will not be any more.  I can relate to ending my competitive basketball career about 6 or so years ago, after I had my 4th surgery on the same knee, all for injuries related to basketball and jogging.

After that last injury, my priorities and focus also shifted.  I think it’s fairly common to happen around that time of life.  I did try to come back and play a little basketball a year or so ago (maybe it’s two years ago now) and it went ok, except that I hurt my back.  :(  I sure hope Tim can stay healthy.  It sounds like he’s got plenty of other things to enjoy.
