I still get a lot of emails, comments, and have had a few phone conversations regarding Tommy John Surgery from players and parents wanting to know what to expect. There is a real need in cyberspace for more firsthand accounts of injuries and how the recovery process went.
At the menu bar at the top of the site is a tab for “Injury Stories,” which will take you to a submission form. You can write whatever you want there, and it will submit directly to me for approval. I would love to post anything you want to write, because it really will mean something to someone out there, even if you never meet them.
I have a lot of former teammates who have a lot to share, but I’m not gonna be pushy with this and keep pestering people. All I’ll say is, if you have a story, you should share it, help someone else out, and spread the knowledge around. And if I don’t know you but maybe you’ve gotten some info from me, return the favor. You can submit directly, or email me if you’re unsure of how you want to go about it. I’ll look forward to hearing from you…
