In case anyone was wondering, he’s not coming back this playoffs. But it seems like he could be playing next year which absolutely nuts.
I don't think they thing the word is could for next year. I think they think he will be playing.In case anyone was wondering, he’s not coming back this playoffs. But it seems like he could be playing next year which absolutely nuts.
I guess all there is to go off is Herzlich... who missed like 16 months.
But in Herzlichs case the timing of the season etc probably added a bit onto that. As he was healthy and training 6 months after the diagnosis but the college football season had already started and it is super short.
Plus ofc given size would have lost higher % of body weight, and in turn took longer to put back on.
But tbh amazing even speaking about this as a possibility. So glad that it seems he is going to recover and live a normal life... let alone play again.
To go off this, the femur as you probably know is considered a "long bone" of the body. Essentially these bones bear a lot of weight and innervate important muscles. In other words, they're the important bones.Also Herzlich had the cancer in his leg, which would be a bigger problem when initiating training, you'd want to be cautious at first with putting pressure on that leg.
An MRI showed that the pain in his left thigh was a tumor. Doctors would leave Mark's femur intact. After a course of chemotherapy and radiation, they would reinforce it by inserting a titanium rod.
This is a very rare form of cancer so there probably aren’t as many precedents compared to other forms. Oskar is a very young man so his chances of making a quick and full recovery would naturally be higher than someone triple his age.I guess all there is to go off is Herzlich... who missed like 16 months.

Do you spend 24/7 researching things?I guess all there is to go off is Herzlich... who missed like 16 months.

Haha. I do have a naturally inquisitive mind. I like finding out about things I dont know. Not quite 24/7... but if I feel I should know about something or have a little "earworm" that wont shut up wondering about something then I have to look into it or my mind does not get clear.
It is my Mum's fault. When I was a kid and asked her a question if the answer was not simple she would say "we have multiple encylopedia's on the shelf over there Alexander".
"Alexander?" - That explains a lot, certainly the expectations placed upon you.
Though by your age I think he had conquered most of the known world (outside of China and SE Asia).
Yes, it is. You might be surprised to find out your tiny chode has no bones in it.The femur is not the longest bone in my body....ba dum tss
My Mum is the only person who ever calls me my full name though!
My father is called Philip as well... though thankfully he is not such an equine lover as the original apparently was.

Do we know where it was in Oskar? I think I recall seeing speculation it was in his shoulder but never saw any confirmation on it. I suppose having no information means his medical history is being protected as it should be but in today's day and age it feels weird to not know, unless it is out there and I'm just missing it
