Help! Will I Be Able To....

My surgery is august 8th in south carolina. I'm leaving SC after my post op appt on the 16th. (my post op appt and my clearance to go...)

well, theres a concert in hershey Pa friday and saturday and my boyfriend was going to get us tickets for both days. we would spend 2 nights over there...

which means drive the 10 hours from sc to pa....then saturday home to NJ (2 hours) ..... The driving isn't what im worried about...

will i be able to physically sit in the heat and watch the show...I'll be able to have my Water and hopefully my Protein shakes. It's probably going to be about 90-97 degrees ...we would do the show and probably walk around the park (no rides of course being only 1 week out from pre op) ...

Do you think i will be able to go ????

ty you too :)

I am 8 days post. I am trying to do my normal activities, but the fatigue hits me unexpectedly. Your body needs rest to recover appropriately. Don't push yourself!
