I wrote London, Ontario, Canada. Here's the Link to Shasta's Frappr<BR/>http://www.frappr.com/?a=myfrappr&id=156826 She's having fun working on it and having all her friends join her.<BR/><BR/>Julia, I couldn't BELIEVE the doctor telling me to consider starting to drink. He was serious! He did give me 30 pain killers. WHOOPIE! That might help the pain for almost a week. I've learnt to sit down with my one leg under my cheek and that kind of acts like a donut, but it doesn't stop the pain from standing, climbing steps or hills. Shasta and I are walking very slowly these days, plus with all the snow (and probably ice) I hope I'm not being too cautious.<BR/><BR/>Andee, I think I did this way long ago too, because it's always been a painful spot to sit right down or lay on it. In my younger days I had to jump out of a truck window while it was traveling about 50 miles per hour on a gravel road. <BR/>Course, I was in shock and didn't feel the pain until later.<BR/>See all the stuff you miss from being away for awhile?! LOL I hope it was for a 'good' reason. ;)<BR/><BR/>My sweet Indy, When Shasta saw me take the fall, she was right by my side. Unfortunately, her muzzle kept bumping me because I know she wanted to give me kisses.<BR/>The trainer seemed to think by my letter to her that she already has all the training she needs to Service me, but did say the certification was expensive. Usually they use their own dogs, but with the name of the woman that certifies, I'll contact her and even if my family wants to advance me a few Christmas' and birthdays to help, plus maybe my disability pension might pay a percentage. You just keep your toes, ears and tail crossed for me.<BR/>*hugs to all of you!!!*Connershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768489273730846275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10075613.post-1133977114874650112005-12-07T12:38:00.000-05:002005-12-07T12:38:00.000-05:00I'm so sorry about your tail bone, that must be so...I'm so sorry about your tail bone, that must be so painful.

I had that happen when I was a waaay bit younger, I was jumping a mound of dirt on my bicycle, went straight up in the air, and landed right on my tail bone. OUCH! I never went to the dr. but it sure did hurt!Amstaffiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07323840281600001931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10075613.post-1133883219825788082005-12-06T10:33:00.000-05:002005-12-06T10:33:00.000-05:00Conners, sorry about your tail bone. Not to make ...Conners, sorry about your tail bone. Not to make you feel worse, but don’t get up false hopes about it “healing” in weeks. Even if the bone knits, it will ache when you go to the bathroom sometimes, if you sit too long, when you have your period, it will ache for the darnedest reasons. For a couple of years. Then one day, you will notice it doesn’t ache any more. That’s when it will be healed. Good luck.JuliaRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10795348297295716491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10075613.post-1133882414500685352005-12-06T10:20:00.000-05:002005-12-06T10:20:00.000-05:00thanks for adding yourself to my map.
