It did not last long and in retrospect she was not exactly hot to trot. I never had roller skated before. So to please I went with it. After a few spins I got going a lot faster but did not know how to stop. So my foolish instinct was to grab the yellow railing at full speed..SNAP!. This was November. It kept popping and popping. Finally by June I saw the orthopedic specialist. He said they would cut into me in August so I could half enjoy my summer before going to college. He called it a Bankart repair with several screws and staples. By November I got out of the shoulder retainer but they never gave me any therapy. When I took up tennis several years later I began short cutting my serve and overhead. Gradually, I got some elasticity back over the years. I was actually playing better at 35 than 25. I played more singles for a while because I could run. I was only 155-160 pounds for that early decade. In a strange way I never developed tennis elbow because the injury seemed to force my backswing and follow through to stay straight and compact. But the scar tissue is all there to this day.</p></blockquote><p></p>
