Re: Best Wishes to our May 02 Princesses
I'm and to you as you get ready for surgery. My sincere wish for you is an uneventful surgery and a quick, easy recovery.
I will be your Sunshine Sister joining you on your Recovery Progress Thread for those members having surgery from May 2nd through May 8th. I will be checking in on you to see how you're doing, to provide support, and to cheer you on during your recovery journey.
A few things I found helpful during my initial recovery:
- A small pillow to support my belly for side sleeping
- Enough pillows to support me when I was sitting up in bed
- An area beside my bed to sit drinks, snacks, phone, meds, lip balm, hand cream, tissues, etc.
- Having things to keep me occupied while I was resting, but not sleeping (iPad, TV, DVDs, etc.)
- The alarms on my watch and an alarm clock to clue me in when it was time for my meds
Here are a couple of links you may find helpful:- Mr. HysterSisters is a site that helps our loved ones learn how to support us.
- There certainly are a lot of abbreviations on here. What do they all mean?
Abbreviations
- There's a lot of great info in the Pre-Op Articles and those articles can help answer lots of .
Remember to look for your Recovery Progress Thread once you are able after surgery. You can access it by clicking here--> Hysterectomy Recovery Reports after your surgery or by clicking on "User CP" and looking in the "Your Surgery Information" section.
You can do this! The nerves can be unsettling, but remember to breathe. Distract yourself by staying busy. Finish cleaning your house (you get a "get out of jail free card" on that task for awhile ), get some meals prepared and frozen, do any last minute grocery shopping, prepare your recovery nest, enjoy time with your family, and do something for yourself that you enjoy doing.
Remember to Pamper the Princess!

Re: Best Wishes to our May 02 Princesses
Thanks for the well wishes. The nerves are really starting to amp up. I now have 5 hours before surgery prep starts. Luckily I have enough to keep me busy and hopefully to keep my mind busy too. Good luck to everyone tomorrow!
