TBH, I knew certain ppl would be triggered I never said that my daughter didn't want to work only that her back was so bad she can get disability benefits (if she so desires.)
Unless you expect people to go from a physically demanding job to an office job overnight? Always looks good in a new job too, constantly taking time off to visit doctors and hospitals. Maybe the welfare state is overused by the workshy but if it isn't there to help people out when they hit a sticky patch then we may as well do away with the whole thing and go back to the workhouse system. ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

She's a brick layer then is she?
In all seriousness, I met a bloke on holiday who was partially paralysed after a hang gliding accident. He had a physical tradesman job and had to retrain as telesales.
I only have partial movement and strength of my left arm after my shoulder was broken into 3 pieces in a racing accident. There is a constant pain even 10 years on, but not enough to worry about. I was too ill to be operated on at the time, due to a punctured lung and many broken ribs, so the bones healed before they could be joined back together (and a piece of the blade is missing somewhere). I had to adapt my self employed work so, it's mainly remote and mainly from home now. I've just got on with it and learnt to use my right arm more and other muscles when lifting etc. (I'm left handed).
I have little sympathy for those who just give up when they could quite easily adapt and still be self sufficient, as you might have seen! ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

My experience has been similar to yours mpd. Except that before my bike accident, in which my injuries sound like they were considerably worse than yours, I was badly burned in a fire in a barrack block when in the RAF. You might not think there are consequences to such burns, but I can tell you there are, although on their own they're mostly quite manageable. Then the crash that injured my back. Picking yourself up once, even twice from such things is to be lauded. But when a third one comes along, and by this time you're older anyway, and don't sustain it so well...well, it becomes a bit much. Especially when it's a genuine back injury
And that's still only the half of it
And it might be worth pointing out to you that just because you've gone through such a trauma, it doesn't make you the know-it-all on all such injuries. Trauma is not a one-size-fits-all thing.
So when you've been through a few like yours, which appears to me to have been comparatively minor, then come back and let me know you can just keep going on as if nothing had happened.
And guess what? I'm not angry at the whole world because of it all ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

So what do you do for a living? You can clearly use a computer and a phone. What’s stopping you from working for a living?
Another “bad back”? Bed bound are you? Unable to use a PC or a phone, or just too lazy? ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Nailed it!
You quoted me, but you didn't read it
But that's ok. I read less and less of the diatribes and vitriol you spew all over this forum too ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Maybe, it's "just" spondyloarthritis (you reminded me of the word) at the moment which I think is more of an umbrella term for "your back's fucked, we'll get back to you with the details."
