Vacation Less Than 3 Weeks After Surgery?

Hi,

I'm new here but have been reading your posts since I started looking into this surgery (thanks for the helpful info by the way). So I finally got scheduled for a surgery on October 17th. However I have a work convention I have to attend in Hawaii Nov. 5th, and had planned to take my husband and two little girls so we could tack on some family vacation time. My work is not strenuous; there will be walking and sitting but no lifting (aside from my 1 year old). I thought we would stay for a week total. My surgeon says I should be ok, but I am a bit worried about being on soft food/just starting on solid food. I am 38, 240lb and generally a good healer. 2 c-sections already... Would hate to push back surgery but don't want to set myself up for an expensive nightmare. Any advice? Thanks,
