      Hi Pete
      believe me, I can´t feel your pain but I´m sympathetic to your plight... But, you got away with something which could have been much much worse. The coccyx cannot be reset or fixed, in fact, I know of a woman who had to deliver a very big baby, which when coming out from the birth canal broke her coccyx. As a result 20-something years later her tail bone still faces sideways! You´re indeed lucky your´s is not sticking out, like Man´s lost or wagging tail 😉

      Cheers,

        Ouch Pete. I almost did that over 20 years ago. That involved bike shoes and an asphalt driveway. Went almost horizontal down on my tail bone and it hurt so much I just lay there staring at the sky. Nothing broke I don't think.

          Pete...your in my neck of the woods...the Cape is only a few hours ride north from me! Sorry to hear about your ass ( boy, you don't get to say that very much) that is a bad injury for someone who sits down for a living to get....you might want to move your PC temporarily to a standing configuration!

            A brilliant tale (or should I say tail?) I too have broken my coccyx, but in a slightly more embarrassing accident involving a bike saddle and a lamp post.

                Hard luck Pete, hope you mend soon. I'm attaching a pic of you, me and Andrew in Mountain View. It might cheer you up a bit 👍

                  Pete,
                  Hope you mend soon. I'm surprised more people don't break their asses since they're already cracked.

                    OMG that was too funny... the story and the responses.
                    but - I hope you heal quickly, Pete! I'm laughing w/ you, not at you...

                    it is only by the grace of God I have not done the very same thing as you...
                    btw - my kids went down the hill w/out me last year and their sled was like some sort of tree-seeking missile and slammed them into it... luckily they were not killed... just bumps on the heads from tree branches...
                    they were done w/ sledding for th season after that. 😆
                    now they're begging to go again. 😄

                      Pete, I have not seen any posts from you in a while. I hope that you are just resting and visiting family for the holidays. I sure would hate for you to be seriously hurt.

                        Hey y'all, I'm good... kinda. I am mobile and all, I am still a little sore and need to ease down when attempting to sit (like a pregnant woman).

                        Just got back and got a bit of work, will be active again shortly.
                        Here are a few pics:

                          How dare you insinuate i had 6 pints.

                          There were at least 13.

                          Glad to hear you are on the mend Solo
