[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you sure they all know? Just getting everything...was it for a health issue or for cosmetic? I have a million crises going on a la sandwich generation including ill kids right now (not covid-thank goodness). I would make calling a frie3nd who had major surgery a priority. If she just got a tummy tuck it would not be high on my list.[/quote]

Oh yes, they know...we all talked before. Major orthopedic fix after injury. [/quote]

Oh goodness, that is tough. Thanks for clarifying. I am sorry they didn't reach out.  text isn't a lot to ask. [b]Wishing you a speedy recovery![/b][/quote]

Thank you! This is a long time coming after an injury, and I'm thrilled to have it done! I kept being told the only answer was a total knee replacement but I'm way too young, but kept pushing and found a surgeon to fix it. I'm so happy, and doing well. Will be better when I can drive again!![/quote]

NP- this is an elective surgery? I sometimes check in with friends after elective surgery, and sometimes don’t. I’m far more concerned when it’s not elective and is an emergency. Then I’m more likely to try and bring something by, help with kids, whatever. When surgery is elective and planned you have time to prepare in advance, and have supports in place. If you ask me to be part of that in advance I will say yes to what I’m able to do, but I’m not going to go as out of my way as if it’s an emergency surgery that throws a family into chaos. [/quote]
