There is other great news, too. I survived a real Thai massage and became a convert. In spite of my past reluctance about letting anyone kneed my bod , I finally submitted. My back and butt pain were just getting too awful. (Before leaving for Thailand, I’d seen Bob Hudgins and Howard Morgan–both NS friends–about the complaints, and was planning to have surgery in October). But, I couldn’t keep on shuffling around and bending over every five minutes until October. So, I needed help and I gave in. I went to a recommended place and presented my complaints to the masseuse. She went to work. She did a vigorous total body massage but focused great attention to the angry sites. That was almost a week ago, and I’ve been 98% asymptomatic since. Can you imagine? I mean it’s amazing. I hope I never operated on some poor soul who only needed a Thai massage.
