Ethan started baseball with a vengeance... was a solid infielder and consistent at-bats.....

But as with all good things, they eventually end. Towards the end of the season, Ethan was at an ice skating party, at one point fell. When he fell, he somehow cut his thumb on his hockey skate. The cut severed a tendon an caused some nerve damage, which resulted in orthopedic surgery to repair the injury. This ended his baseball/swim team season. It also resulted in six weeks in a soft/hard cast.

We had to wrap his cast in a towel and plastic wrap before he could hit the beach.
