[quote=Anonymous]Yes she will absolutely need around the clock support for at least the first week, maybe more, depending on how fast she recovers. After that, she’ll need someone around basically full time during the day for another week+. And don’t discount the impact the anesthesia will have - my dad had a full knee replacement a few years ago when he was 72 and he was completely out of it for several days (the first two days while still in the hospital he could not recall what year it was, the names of his siblings, the name of the president). It was a significantly more challenging recovery than we were expecting.[/quote]
