What a sad story about Natasha Richardson. Yet again, we’re shown how fragile life is and how quickly it can be changed or taken away. My prayers go out to her family and children.

This is one of the things about post-annie that I’ve always been worried about…that accidental fall that could damage the coiling. I know that often times when I’ve almost stumbled over the cat, or lost my balance and caught myself suddenly, I still feel it where my annie is. Even after two and a half years. I was in a minor car accident last November and I have had the thought about what if it had been more severe…would I sustain more of an injury than a normal person due to my annie if it had been more serious? Hopefully, I’ll never find out.
