[quote=Anonymous]I know this isn't what you asked, but my husband SUCKS at this type of care too (though he is a good, caring, generous spouse in general). When I have had surgery (mastectomy, reconstruction), I've had a girlfriend stay with me to take care of me, and had DH pick up all other household responsibilities + kids and dog. Maybe I could work on my husband more to be a better caregiver, but I just didn't want that stressful dynamic post-surgery. If this is your first time having surgery, maybe this is will help you plan better for other medical needs. If you can, I'd try to get help from friends, family or paid, and pass along other responsibilities to DH. Sorry you are going through this. Wishing you a speedy recovery. [/quote]
