Question:
I need helpful hints and pointers to plan for a trip abroad at 6 weeks post-op.

My doctor has cleared me for the trip, but I'm especially concerned about staying comfortable and not getting dehydrated on the flight over. I still feel fragile but would just as soon convalesce in a more interesting setting than at home. Friends will help me out if I need it. Has anyone else done this?    — Laurie C.
