Ice packs can leak!
When I put my back out two weeks ago I did not realise there would be some lessons in it for me. Here’s what I learned:
- It’s not that easy to just “carry on” when you’re hobbling around like a 250-year-old on a bad day
- I get frustrated when I can’t leap around on all my various dubious missions all day. I didn’t cope 10% as well as I thought I would when everything was fine
- Mobility is a valuable thing we take for granted until we lose it. There’s a lot of people out there who don’t have it. Now I know just a little how they must feel
- Everyone has a different opinion on back care – osteopaths are good, osteos are bad, accupuncture is the only way – you decide!
- Ice packs can leak, and when they do it’s a cold, wet, trickly goo sliding down your legs. But I love it really!
