Contagious

My beloved husband just turned 42 today and unfortunately, he is feeling his age acutely, suffering a muscle pain in his back.

For the past few days, he's been sitting on one of those vibrating massage cushions to ease his pain.

Then a funny thing happened.

My 3-year-old boy complained of back pain too, and needed to have a sit in the massage cushion.

Then Elmo, that lovable red monster, had some back ache too, and he needed to sit in the massage chair.

And even Monkey, who has long been the favorite among the stuffed animals, he too suffered some back pain and needed some massage time.

I never knew back pain could be contagious.
