Sands, that tiger eye would make a great cabojohn. It is striking in the layering.
Good luck with your back. I know that pain real well. If I had not broken my neck later on, I would still be in chronic pain.
I fractured C-1 C-3 C-6 in three seperate occasions. I lost the feeling in my hands and feet 15yrs ago. It still feels weird.

Sands, I know what that is. I was on one for months after I broke my back. The one I was on had a motor, and pulled, pulled, pulled, pulled. The Dr., told me a lot of people took a nap on that thing.
That made me wonder about Drs., and especially this one. The difference between what I went through, and you. You are not in a HALO and I was. THey connected the HALO to the headrest, and my feet and upper thighs to the other section. I was on it for one hour every three days, with seven days on an EMF generator to generate bone growth and nerve regrowth.
Phooey! I think those doctors are in league with the Electricals! No other type of people could think of something like that unless you add the Spanish the Inquisition.
