Dawn,
I'm still in town so if you need anything...give me a call. All the advice on page 1 (I haven't read 2-3 yet)is good. If your back stretcher thing is a "Back2Life" get on it...do 2 timed sessions instead of 1 and do it 3-4 times a day. See if you can get your granddaughter to play nearby so you can watch her or if you need me to "borrow her" for a day or so, I can. I have a doctors appointment Tues. early AM but otherwise could help.
