it's really really important you rest and let the bones heal** ** you do not want to make this worse

my husband totally shattered a vertebrate in a fall, as in it was powdered, after surgery his vertebrate is now made of superglue and bone dust

the surgeons say he must have already had a hairline fracture in a previous accident a few weeks before that weakened him , a hairline he didn't know he had

REST AND HEAL

rest and pain medicine

can't really do that; both of us are having back issues. At least we will need to load the dishes. Thanks for the concern taking it really easy, and sleeping a lot. Trying to wean myself off the pain meds as it can get addicting.
