Keith has been having this horrible pinched nerve in his neck that goes down his shoulder and arm. It lasts for about a month with chiropractic help and eventually fades away enough for him to stop complaining about it. Well this was at the beginning of one of his episodes. These episodes will come on about every six months or so.

This one just started and Mike bought this neck contraption for him to help alleviate the neck pain. I am not sure it really helped, but it was good for a great laugh. He asked me to help him get it on and I warned him that if I helped....I was getting a picture. Talk about moving up in age...when the picture on the box has 80 to 90-year-old people hobbling around with canes and walkers (okay not really), it is only in reference to older people...it can make you feel like 40 is a lot older than it really is.



But he does use it at night while watching TV. Anytime I see this coming out of the box, I can't help but laugh. Hopefully it'll do the job, but we'll have to see.

Is that a jock strap and a coat hanger? What the heck you doing with a jock strap and why's it that close to your face? I feel for you with neck pain though. I've had my share of it, besides the one's that have names attached to them.
