really sucks man.. fwiw, most of us have had some bad injuries on this forum. Some nearly as bad as yours. Everyone's been able to eventually overcome them and get back to what they love.
Just don't "rush" back in. Follow your doc's/pt's advice.
You can do other things.. One quick example was when i broke my shooting wrist in h.s.; snapped it in half. Not as bad as tearing ligaments in the ankle etc but.. I really cared about bball back then, so while I was in my cast I made sure my diet was in check, worked on my lefty shooting form mechanics, etc. After I got my cast off, I could actually drop jumpers lefty. I kept that up for a few years and was able to pullup j's with either hand. Was fun seeing the confusion on people's faces, not understanding they just got j'd on with the other arm. So, just an example of turning a bad situation into a good one.
