Surgery Over

Dec 17, 2010

Home safe and sound.  First goal achieved! 

Feeling sorer than I was expecting, but not intolerable.  I am on the liquid diet and am finding it difficult to squeeze in all the stuff they want me to eat.  So far, I am finding that I spend my entire day focusing on eating and drinking and walking.  I hope that once real food is brought back into the picture this will not be the case.

Advice for someone approaching surgery and wondering what they should "get" for afterward --  ask your surgeon in advance what the post-operative diet will consist of (IMMEDIATELY after surgery).   Have at least 2-3 days supply ready for your home return.  We weren't prepared and upon leaving the hospital, I had to go to the food store to get what was needed.
