I am having surgery June 8th Dr. said I'll be released from the hospital Thur. 10......My daughter is having a little play and grad from her pre-school on Friday the 11th :001_unsure:am I CRAZY to think Ill be there

I think it will really depend on how you recover. I personally didn't have the energy to be up and moving for more then 15 to 20 minutes at a time. But other people recover sooner and can do alot more. maybe having a protein shake before leaving the house will help your energy level for the play.

I'ts true, some people are up and about in only a few days post surgery. Much of this depends upon how your surgery goes for you individually. I hope you will be able to make the show....that would be great!

Well I really hope you can make it. I had a pretty easy recovery but I was still pretty weak and sore on day 3. You figure though.... a lot of us that go to Mexico fly home on day 3 or 4. If you have somebody drive you there and it's not too long it could be doable.

good luck

I was still a little sore standing up at 3 days out, but was also out grocery shopping (just not lifting much) at that point also. Hard telling ahead of time how you'll feel, but you've got a good chance of being able to make it! :crying:

It really does depend on your healing process.

However, I've learned there is nothing like the inner-strength of a mother. Especially when she is watching one of her kids go through a major milestone. Just line someone up to transport you & take it easy. You should do fine. But, plan on lots of rest before and after the event - don't overdo it.

Thank you all so very much for all your advise. I have just put my mind to it and told myself I can do it. She is my youngest of 4 and dont want to miss out on anything my kids do. I'll make sure to get plenty of rest before and have my husband drive. Thanks again Randi
