Latest status 8pm fri

I'm back in my room. My c7-t1 has been fused. I have a pain killer to press every 5 minutes or so. I have some things strapped around my legs with tubes attached. I have no pain. My next surgery is sometime tomorrow. I am allowed to eat ice. This minimum security prison isn't bad; all the guards are very nice, I am reading some travel brochures, Victoria Falls, Cuba, Bali trips... And an AARP magazine.
