Football Lady GRRRRRRRRR

Megan played her first game/scrimmage on Tuesday, football for those who don’t know, and she actually got to play. They had 3 teams there and they played half the field and each team rotated in and out on both ends of the field. She was in for at least 12 plays or so. One play she almost got a tackle but the kid broke it and ran for a touch down. Then she got knocked on her butt by a boy 2 feet taller and 50 pounds heavier than her but she got right back up. It was a rough time for her but she hung in there. A gentleman said as we were passing on our way to the car that he admired my daughter and that it took a lot of guts to go out there and play. I agree.

She has been experiencing these lovely cramps that we took her to the hospital about a month ago thinking it was her appendix. She was home the day before the game and they were a little better the next day but still there. We have entered into the don’t want to go to school phase again and I told her ovulating isn’t any reason to miss school and we need to figure out how to minimize these episodes in the future because this is unfortunately her life from now on. She hasn’t even started her period yet so weeeeee for her. I don’t want to take my 12 year old to the gynecologist but I may have too.

Saturday is her first official game and hopefully the sick feeling I had on Tuesday along with the panic attacks will maybe not be as bad but I doubt it. At least I think I will have moral support this time because Sean and Dave will be there rooting for her also.

Stay tuned……………………………….
