[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a nurse. There is a lack of understanding of what recovery from major surgery can look like for the elderly. It's complicated by the fact that it can be unpredictable who will do well and who will have complications. I'm not sure that lack of understanding can be remedied because people prefer optimistic innocence. [/quote] This is why anyone over 80 should be advised against any major medical intervention. There probably are exceptions but that should be the guideline.[/quote]
