If they are constantly wet, why aren’t they soggy and not maintaining our structure?

This whole thread is disturbing to me.

    It's only the marrow that is wet. The structural part of the bone is non-absorbent.

    The marrow can exert a lot of pressure. Many years ago, I had to have chemotherapy, and in between chemo rounds got marrow-stimulating shots to make the marrow ooze blood more and reduce the amount of time I was anemic. The associated pain in my large bones was the worst pain I have ever had.
