Update

So it has been forever since I have updated and again, sorry.  Yesterday was my birthday! I am now an old man of 24! It was nice spending the day with Becca.  It was definitely a different feeling celebrating away from our home in Michigan.  It was the first time I was ever away from my family which was a little tough but since I had Becca it was okay.

We celebrated Thanksgiving last Sunday with our friends David and Paulina along with one of Paulina's friends and David's sister and brother-in-law.  It was great!  If you'd like to see pictures, Becca has a blog now with a lot of them. Check it out!

Our basketball team is doing well. I think we are 7-2?  Unfortunately I had a big setback in the last game.  I was having a solid first half, probably the most minutes I had played so far in the season when I pulled my groin right before halftime.  I wasn't able to play the rest of the game.  Today I went to the rehab place here in Nassjo and got some discouraging news.  It seems my injury looks to be in the tendons connected to the muscles in my groin which is not only painful but can take a long time to recover :(  He gave me the number to a specialist in Jonkoping and I will probably go to see him soon to get more definite answers about how long of a recovery this will be but at the absolute very least it will be probably 2 weeks before I can play again and could very easily be longer. 

This was really hard news to get today but I am trying to stay positive.  I will be rehabbing it hard to try to get back on the court as soon as possible so I can continue playing the game I love so much.  Thanks for all the birthday wishes and I'll let you know how the team does after our game this weekend.
