Update on Jerrika's knee and how our lives have changed

I haven't posted in a few weeks regarding all the changes in our lives, here's the latest.
Jerrika's knee hurts quite a bit. Unfortunately we can't quantify the pain and can't quite figure out what brings it on and what doesn't make it hurt - sometimes it will hurt while she is laying around, othertimes it will hurt while she is playing but then again, it may not.
So she has been out of cheer for almost a month. She still cries quite a bit about missing her friends and missing what she loves. She watches cheer videos on youtube.com all the time and talks about routines and even practices them. She requested that I order her a bow and new competition bloomers. She told us that she wants to go to all the competitions, dressed out. She even wants to sit at choreography to watch what is being planned (btw, it looks awesome!) However, she says she may or may not go back in February - WTH? I don't understand a 10 year old's mind some days - flip, flop, WOW.. I guess we'll wait and see what the future holds.
Her next dr appt is on Sept. 14th. She will have an xray and see the dr that day. Hopefully we'll see some healing.
Jerrika has a lot of fear of another surgery. She is also quite pessimistic regarding her knee's healing. She doesn't feel it will heal. I keep assuring her that God has a plan and He will make it heal, if that's what His plan is. We can do what we can to help it heal, but there's no way to know if it will or won't heal. We just keep praying, have her take supplements, stretch her legs a lot and have her do nothing impact.
Ya no impact, that's another topic. She and Jonathan went to a modeling shoot a couple of weeks back. It was at a beautiful home in Paradise Valley. The homeowners have an inground trampoline and a wooden play structure - all very attractive for kids. I kept having to talk to Jerrika about not bouncing on the trampoline and not to hang from the monkey bars - so she wouldn't jump down and hurt herself. This was very stressful for me - I really don't want her to jump and get hurt and she couldn't remember not to. It isn't important to her, until it starts hurting and then she understands why it is so important not to jump.
When she started school, we had to talk to the teachers, the PE coach and really had to sit her down and explain - NO JUMPING, NO RUNNING. This is hard, but hopefully it really starts to sink in soon.
Because she can't do any impact sports, her doctor told her she can be in swimming or cycling. We found a nice swim team to join. Her coach is Chris Aikman (no relation to Troy), he is an Ironman and swims a lot. So far, Jerrika's enjoying the swim team, but sure is very different -not social in the least. This is the hardest thing for her. Cheerleading is very social - talking to your friends while you warm up, talking during the routine and cheering each other on and encouraging. Swimming is alone and totally individualized.
We'll keep praying and being patient..
