Bennett is doing pretty good. He had practice last night and than again at 6 a.m this morning. Last night, his right ankle was really bothering him. It was swollen and really hurt. He was pretty frustrated about it. He hopes to play the whole basketball season and than baseball in the spring. There is no really way to heal his ankles or his bones. It is a side effect from the steroids he takes in his treatment plan.

He takes calcium to hopefully strengthen his bones. He also wears ankle braces to practice to help give him support. He said this morning, he wore last years shoes and they seemed to help. The trainer indicated that the soreness from the bone on top of his foot is probably caused from him having flat feet.

We pray that his ankles and bones get stronger and doesn’t cause him any pain or lack of ball playing time. His first game is next Tuesday.

His cough also returned last night and I gave him cough medicine again and it’s better today.

We went tonight to the movies to see Old Dogs with John Travolta and Robin Williams, we all really liked it!

We will go to Newton, IL tomorrow to have Thanksgiving at Sid’s Aunt’s house and Sidney and Jane will be going with us. We are so blessed and thankful!
