Concussion

Thomas has a concussion from the first night of contact at football.  Fortunately, it is a very mild concussion.  Sadly, I knew this was pretty much inevitable.  He really doesn't know what he is doing out there.  Honestly, he is more of a flag football kind of guy.  He is out for at least the next week, and I suspect longer.  Not because it's a bad concussion or anything like that, but because I'm afraid this is his way to not get pummeled, while saving face without quitting.  I know that sounds like a horrible thought to have about my child, but I'm realistic it is a possibility.  Regardless, we are absolutely going to follow the proper protocol, and he is not going back on the field too quickly.  Hoping everything works out for the best!
