Good luck, Angela! I am no expert (my surgery is 9-2), but am offering you a prayer. God bless you, Suzy

Hi there! Best of luck to you. My date is the 21st. Things I've heard to have on hand....easy things, bottled water so you can just grab it, cottage cheese, have some pre-pureed chicken frozen, crystal light, or fruit20. Hydration is very important. Also, have things organized so you don't need to bend a lot the first few days. I hope that info helps. Being pre-op I'm only going on what I've heard and seen in others. You'll do great!
