Real Reason for My Back Pain

Long story short, my back pain was from a hairline fracture of the L5 vertebre in my lower back. A visit to my doctor who sent me for a Cat Scan, showed the fracture. It was caused by that dirty word "osteoporosis." The doctor asked me if I remembered injuring it. I thought it was the working hard in the yard, but after the fact I've discovered how it probably happened.
When Heather had a procedure done at the doctor, I watched her kids that day. I jumped on the trampoline with the kids. At the time I felt some pain so I quit jumping. I believe the fracture occurred with crazy grandma thinking she was 10 yrs old and not 57! Just a warning for all of you when you become grandmas. NO TRAMPOLINE JUMPING!
