Update...

Thank you for all the prayers for Coby. We are asking that you keep praying. He is in surgery this morning. The fracture in his right orbital bone is about 1 centimeter long and should heal on its own. His nose, however, is being completely reconstructed. The good news: In this case, all body parts are "fixable" and the doctor told him he should be able to throw again in 10 days. Please pray for the surgeons who are working on him and for his comfort and healing after the surgery. I will keep you posted.

Everything went well. He said he had the doctors reshape his nose to look like Michael Jackson's.

We're praying that Coby makes a quick recovery. I know he'll be back on the mound in no time!

Glad to hear Coby seems to be taking this so well and healing quickly! If he wanted a nose job, he probably could've just saved up for it instead of all this drama. :) Can't believe the Lusters are close to having 2 kids!! You and Jay next in line?? Just kidding. It'll be good that Colt will have someone close to his own age to play with at our get togethers.

Coby and Jay could have matching noses! Jay broke his way earlier -they did an outstanding job on his.
Coby, sorry that you had to go through all of that! I can't believe that you'll be throwing again in 10 days! That's AMAZING!
Love you and take care!
