Remarkable plan
👋 Meet Parker.
A student athlete with a passion for soccer and golf, Parker faced a tough setback when he tore his ACL. "The timing of the injury was tough," Parker shares. "I missed my high school senior season, and it put my recruiting for playing soccer in college on hold."
Despite this, Parker has shown remarkable resilience in navigating the challenges of recovery. "There are days when you feel stronger and days when you don't feel you're making progress," he admits. However, he has remained patient and committed to his treatment plan, following the guidance of his doctors and physical therapists.
What has made the process easier for Parker is the support and encouragement he’s received from his medical team here at Nationwide Children's. "The doctors and PT staff have been the best! They're always there to encourage me and help me do what I need to do to recover fully."
Despite the challenges, Parker is keeping his spirits high, even through the difficult moments of recovery. With his determination and the support of his dedicated team, Parker is well on his way to a full recovery and back on the field where he belongs!
