Not being a furry yourself YET

Sensible choice!

Injuries that are normal most of the time but then have unpredictable but quite severe reaggravations are extremely irritating, and warrant an extra look

Bad enough to not weight bear sometimes?

Not today, but get it looked at and get some advice on rehab as June was aaaages ago

And to give a break from stimulus!>

But with each of those it produced a conscious awareness of the situation - and allowed me to actually make decisions rather than just continue with it>
