My personal experience is that my back seems to take longer than anything else to heal. Just take it easy so you don't interrupt the healing process. Sadly, I feel like some things never really heal all the way, but then, that's how it seems at my age.

P.S. - I merged this with your original thread so anyone that read the "update", but didn't know about the original post would know what it was in regards to. 

Sorry to hear about this, although I'm glad for the improvement that you are seeing. I've prayed, just now, for continued improvement for you.

Well, it's been a month now since I got hurt, and while the pain has gotten better, back still is WAY out of place.... Back is "Tight as a Rope" and "VERY Angry" as the Chiropractor put it.  Doing okish, still hard to get out of bed, but now even more tired daily.....

My guess is the tube connecting them is weak, and broke, cause the only thing NOT encased in plastic was the nozzle tip and the heatsink....

Got ya.

Sounds good. Probably best to send me the links privately so the "bots" don't go crazy on your site.

I'm a Chrome user. Don't have Firefox either.

I think my issue is installing software for one-time use. I don't generally install anything on my PC that I don't use frequently.

Ooooh! Want! But I don't use Git. 

If either you would like to make all your files available from your host as a ZIP file and send a private link, I would be much obliged.

Do you have DownThemAll? It is an addon for Firefox that lets you download multiple files with a single action. It will really help with this, rather than downloading all the books, one-by-one.
