You will have to decalcify the bone first. Being so small pieces, I advise you 
to use EDTA and proceed with the regular tissue processing after the bone is 
decalcified.

I have a sample that is 3 needle bone biopsies that I need to get an H&E and 
subsequently several 12um thick sections for further assays.  The bone appears 
to not be decaled at all.  I don't normally have bone to cut so I'm looking for 
suggestions.
