A friend in MI wants to sign up for a 2-day painting class at a local historic resort. It's 10 to 4, 2-days in a row, probably sitting in folding chairs painting on easels. I will be 5 weeks post lbl and medial thigh lift (top half of thighs only). Do you think I'll feel up to it or be too uncomfortable for something like this?

hello,
immediately following surgery will I need help with showering and using the restroom? The thought of this horrifies me ?
thanks!
only slight nausea today. went back to work, still super sore tho. I go back to PS tomorrow for another follow up. seroma is still present. hoping if he does another aspiration that he doesnt do that third needle with the alcohol concoction, cuz that hurt really bad. still have a few sutures in, hoping he takes the remaining ones out. sick of wearing this binder...its hot and makes me itch BAD. :(
other than that, im in pretty good spirits:) thank you for asking.
