A bit ago, I gave a Relax The Back Chair away to one lucky blog reader with the best story. The winner was as follows:

Tracy and TJ Mehan:

I’m actually hoping to win this chair for my husband. Six months after we were married (in 1998), he was injured in a night jump while he was serving in the 82nd Airborne division of the Army. When I got to the hospital to see him, he had his toe tags on because they thought he had torn his aeorta. In fact, he broke 8 vertebrae in his back and lost 3 inches in height from the spinal compression. We joke now that we got the “for sicker and for poorer” part of our wedding vows out of the way early in our marriage but in reality he lives with pain every day. He recently started working from home and the chair he has is making the pain worse. I’d love to be able to give this to him for our 15 year wedding anniversary. Pick me! Pick me!

Brief update: The chair is really, really helping TJ. Check out the photo:
