That is too bad, sorry to hear that.   I was an elderly 40 when I "blew out" my knee - partial (grade 2) ACL tear, total (grade 3) MCL and (grade 3) meniscus tear.  After 6 months of grueling PT - no more brace and then after 11 months - I was back on the court.  I lost lateral quickness but by then at 41 - how much was I going to lose just because of age anyways? The biggest obstacle for me was overcoming the psychological "fear" that it would reoccur.  I played for 9 more years until I quit figuring if I dropped on the court - they'd just say "well she asked for that" and step over me. :cool:

Saw so many young kids, some only 14, come back after devastating ligament damage only to return as strong as ever. Baron Davis, Kyle Lowery suffered ACL injuries in their freshman years of college to make full recoveries and play in the NBA. We all saw Andy Rautins and Devo recover well from their ACL injuries right here at SU while CJ Fair certainly had a great college career after his ACL injury in high school.
