Just doing some planning, and I know everybody is different, but how long are you planning on having help at home after surgery OR how long did you need help after surgery?

Thank you!

I made sure the house was cleaned top to bottom, larder and fridge/freezer stocked and son, who was home from school, primed to jump if I asked for him. I was fine getting in and out of bed, off the loo and in/out of the shower. I didn't have problems with stairs and I didn't go out of the house for over a week. I was very careful with what I did and when I did it.

My biggest issue was the heparin injections which I had to take for 21 days twice day. After 2 weeks I called the surgeon and near enough begged him to let me come off them. My tummy was black and blue and sore and once I was off them life was good and MUCH easier lol.
