How to preserve my ribs?

Two weeks ago, I had my 11th rib trimmed down and 12th rib removed among other things. My surgeon is fantastic and said most people ask to keep them, so naturally I came home with two ribs in carry on. I will be getting the same procedure on the other side done in April, so I will have a total of 4 ribs for my collection and room for error.

How in the world do I preserve this!!? I truly do not know what they left on the bone, and I’m finally able to move again so it’s time to get this show on the road (caretakers too grossed out to help me.)

It is winter in of the United States, but my house has different temperatures depending on who’s room you’re in, if that’s any help. I have done research and I unfortunately have ME/CFS and simply do not comprehend. Simple steps would be wonderful, I did preserve my praying mantis with hydrogen peroxide so I am capable, I just should’ve done research before getting sick lol.
