But why me?

So, as in anthing that happens to us in life we ask: why me? I sat with the Dr. and asked "who gets annular tears?" "Well, " he replied. "usually football players... or people who are in car accidents...or there actually is a strong genetic component."

"Really" said I . "My mother's side of the family pretty much all have bad backs. " Now . I'm thinking why this could be...and it occured to me that my Great grandparents were first cousins..Yep, first cousins. Yuch, I know I thought when I found out.That in itself is creepy but if both of them had weak backs...there's that bad back gene. Yet another reason to not marry one's first cousin. Though by now it may be illegal, do you think?
