Phantom pain study

Both my morning and evening attendant took today off so I'm just staying in bed and watching movies.

Dr. Miner e-mailed me and asked me to help one of her friends out who is doing a study on sensation and phantom pain below the level of injury, his name is Daren.

I know Daren's father, David. When I was first injured he and Dr. Miner are the ones that put my halo on. He also fitted me for a back brace and AFO's after I had my foot drop surgery, they are from Ireland and they're both very funny and have great stories.

I really learned a lot from Daren about feelings and sensations below my level of injury. He answered a lot of questions that I have had about my body since my injury.
