We are pleased to announce that Francoise Gordon is progressing well at Sinai Hospital and has a target date of September 8 to be released. She is scheduled to head home to live with her mother. Gordon has been going through daily doses of physical therapy and learning how to do everything again. Francoise was hit by a car and hospitalized in Chicago earlier this summer.
Here is an article from the Towson Times that tells everything about her injury and how well she is doing now. She appreciates all of the well-wishes that everyone has sent to GoDuke.com!

Hey Fran! Just wanted to tell you how awesome you looked when all of us stopped by after the OC tournament - I can't believe the how much progress you had made in just a few weeks since I saw you last. Keep it up! Of course you knew more gossip about OC than I did and I was there! Nothing too exciting going on up here - although I am heading out to the Hamptons this weekend with all of the girls which should be fun.
Keep getting better and hopefully I will see you again soon.
Love, Court

Fran,
You are one of the strongest fighters I have ever known both on and off
the field.
My thoughts and prayers have been with you and your family throughout your
wonderful
strides to making a healthy and safe recovery. I have rallied around many
of our friends
and we all agree that you are such a determined person that nothing will
ever hold you back.
I have no doubt in my mind that you will be scoring a huge goal for the devils in the season opener in the spring.
All my thoughts and prayers from the bottom of my heart. Keep strong and have a safe, quick recovery!!
Love, your friend always
Carter Wornom
