Hi Eve and Dianne,

In files, under post-op recover, I wrote a journal

postjournalvaleriec.doc, I have had a few members read this journal

to their husbands, or significant others. It gives a pretty graphic

view of post life, if it helps. Will you be wanting a mentors for

your surgeries? I am sure I have someone available, email me

privately if you are interested. C

> Hello everyone and happy holidays,

> I am getting ready to have surgery with Dr. Bridwell in less than a

month. I'm trying to prepare, listening to the CD and doing the

exercises he suggested, etc. My question is whether one of you has a

partner who might be willing to talk to mine about what the surgery

was really like -- and more important, about the recovery period. My

husband has never been in a hospital, taken care of someone, or dealt

with this kind of thing before, and he hasn't read anything about it

or paid much attention to the details. We have 3 kids, ages 5, 8,

and 10, and he thinks he can take care of them, me, the house, and it

will be no problem, and he won't consider getting help. I want to at

least prepare him for what it will be like, how out of it I will be

afterwards, the kinds of things I won't be able to do around the

house or with the kids, how long before I am " normal " again... What

did you all do to prepare your partners? Anyone want to talk to mine?

> Thanks so much, and I hope everyone has a healthy and joyous 2009 --
