Question about a week out

Hey you all!!!  Chad FINALLY got a date, April 1.  Since I had GBP 4 years ago, some things have changed.  I cannot remember some info, so I need your help.  He gets his drain out a week after surgery.  Can you tell me if he will be able to drive, or take care of himself a week out?  I am taking off a week and a half to take care of him, and our kids.  Will he need someone else to take care of him and the kids when I go back to work?  His mom from out of town said she would come and stay with us if we need her.  Also,  it has been so long since I used all those already made protein drinks.  Need some suggestions, and where to buy it.  Any thing else you have to tell me would be helpful.  Thanks guys.

I was good to go after a week; however, my doctor does not use a drain.  I have a 5 year old daughter and was with her alone less than a week after surgery.

Hey Monique,
What's happening beautiful!!! I think Chad will be OK after you go back to work. No lifting but one of the bigger kids can do that for him. As far as ready made protein drinks go, I can't remember either. I am afflicted with CRS syndrome, can't remember s---!!!
Would sure love to see you. Know how awesome you must look by this time. Call me or email [email protected] and we'll get together on your day off or something.
Hugs and loveys,
Lana
