Weird Things That Are Difficult After Back Surgery
* Spitting in the sink after brushing your teeth (no bending at the waist)
* Getting soap out of your butt in the shower (mustn’t have the water hitting your back)
* Picking things up after you drop them (seems to happen more often now than before surgery)
* Giving eyedrops to Phoenix (can’t bend down that far)
* Pouring Keno’s gross water (she likes to put her food in her water dish) into the toilet (no bending, and squatting puts you in the “I’m gonna be sick” position)
* Can’t shave my legs - YUK! (again, no bending...or having the water hit your back)

A handheld shower head? I should probably get one now, in case I ever have back surgery. It might help with the spitting, too, if you brush your teeth in the shower.

A handheld shower head - yeah, that’s something I should’ve thought of, huh? Oops. Seriously, you should get one and that’ll absolutely assure you of probably never needing it.
