I have broken my hand and foot but luckily not at the same time

Ouch! I broke my wrist as a youngster, and fractured my tailbone in my mid 20s. The latter was a high force impact of rear meeting steps that I slipped on!

Oh that sounds painful! I thought I fractured my tailbone but was only bruised so I can only imagine!

And it was in MEXICO! So the flight back .... ay yi yi. That remnant of our once-upon-a-time vestigial tails can hurt like a you-know-what!

Talk about bad timing! Could you not get medical care in Mexico?

I did get an x-ray there...but they can't put your rear in a sling (ha!) Healing started when the injured bone and surrounding tissues work together to re-knit...a long process.

Yeah, I didn't think about that. It does damage to more than just the bone, doesn't it?
1_Wizard
Oof. And the *nerves*, nerve roots...totally make up for the fact the bone itself doesn't really "feel" the pain.
