So . . . last week, I was hit by a car while walking my dog. The car also hit a utility pole, slowing it, so I "only" got a broken rib and got hurled into a fence and bounced off into a crumpled heap. Big swollen bruises on my hips, thighs, and knees, constant back ache and stiffness . . . and honestly, that was LESS painful than sciatic nerve attacks.
