It sounds as if it could take 2+ years for my spinal cord to actually heal and it may never fully heal. But considering the alternative outcomes, I'll deal with the aches and pains. Y'know? I'm glad my series gave you some sort of insight as to how it all works and maybe an idea that "life" can just happen. And boy oh boy, when it does, hold on and keep your eyes on the prize. That sounded cheesy. :o / @Andrew

Ha! I kid, I kid. You are right, I need that resource as should any indy designer. But I'm also lucky enough to live in an area where everyone knows everyone, so word got around fast. And my in-progress clients were more than understanding. You asking for a job? Ha! I kid, I kid.

It would take a lot of trust but other designers have the same problems. Hope you have recovered!

Even wearing a protective helmet was no match for a 4' x 8' piece of 5/8" drywall. That's at least a whopping 80lbs hitting me square on the head. @Felipe
