@rwinney That was wonderful analogy of pain and how to help ourselves .This is just what I've gone through I fell hard on my bottom resulting in alot of lower back pain Dr diagnosis is paraphrase I let my back heal now am waiting for my scooter to be built since I can't walk far only in my 1 bedroom apt. But I'm blessed I'm not paralyzed this has happen 2 times now in my life I've escaped being paralyzed Distraction is so important from pain
