I'm home from the hospital. There is a 7 inch incision on the back of my neck. It doesn't hurt as much as it did a couple days ago but I can't turn my head from side to side or up and down yet. My pain meds have finally stared to work so I'm ok. I was told to take it easy and just rest for the next 3 or 4 days. I just came downstairs to let everyone know how things were going here and at another site I go to.
