Devasting news! Hope surgery goes well, he heals completely and quickly, PT goes smoothly. Rest & recovery

Since he’s out of WTT I hope the surgery is as close to immediate as possible.

This explains his jump problems at Worlds and the slower-than-usual skating especially leading up to the throws. I thought he was trying to help Ellie control her take-off. Speedy recovery!

Yeah, he two footed all his jumps, which I have never seen him do before in the many years he’s been skating. But it makes sense considering he had a broken foot. I can’t imagine how much that would hurt!

I hope his surgery goes well and that he and Ellie will have plenty of time to prepare for the Olympic season. They are my favorite pair team and I’m so excited to see what they do next year.

I’m sending off care package next week. Card and many Reese’s. Anyone else have an idea, let me know.

It’s why he’s my fave! No one would have blamed them for dropping out with a broken foot.

So you send it to his skating club and they get it to him? Nice!

I send it to Sofias mother and she or her husband gives it to him. However I’ve sent Christmas cards to skaters at their rinks and they’ve told me they’ve gotten them. Sent Gracie pens and she’s told me she’s gotten them.

Danny’s injury worse than thought. It was a full break. He posted it to his IG story and someone sent it to me.

How long is healing time for that?

I wonder if he taped himself together just to get through the programs. So shocking. I'm going to guess at least 3 months healing time.

And they came in 7th. So crazy!
April, May, June…

I looked at the pics of Danny's right foot on his Instagram and I'm shocked he was permitted to skate too. Those are small bones and like the sheer weight and pressure put on them, that's why I was wondering if they taped it up before he skated at Worlds...

I believe they did. I can’t imagine the pain. Did you see him on the knee scooter?

Yeah I saw his video of him scootering to the dining room LOL. I think he's even trying to work at home by doing video skating coaching.

 

[moonvine]

He is so adorable. If I weren’t already spoken for..

 

[moonvine]

He got my Reeses eggs. In other news, they are opening a webstore but I can’t figure out the address
