Actually I did think about hiring a nurse - I contacted a patient assistant company and they wanted to do a minimum of four hours a day. I wasn’t sure what they’d be doing for that long - it ain’t heart surgery. I’m just worried about bleeding or having the bandage come off after I get home 😳 I should be okay after the first couple of days. I worried about staying active because I need to lose some weight - it’s causing problems. I can’t just lay on the couch for a month. Like I said losing my independence would be horrible and hard to cope with. The doctor didn’t think being alone was going to be that big of a deal. Easy for him to say 😱 Yeah I probably will be in touch quite a bit just to my mind occupied. Thanks everybody!
