I know exactly what you are saying about finding the humor in things. I always say I have to laugh to keep from crying.
All laughing aside, I also have tailbone pain and it is definitely painful. Kind of hard to avoid sitting. I have never seen a doc for it because I have never wanted to expose my bottom half, I know that is probably silly but I worked for Ortho docs for a couple of years and I figured there wasn't a whole lot they could do.
I do miss you around here. Hopefully you will pop back in more often.
