Very rare. Did your surgeon say what caused the leak?
Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
I feel so much better now thank you. It will a week wed. Hopefully I won't get any leaks. I was told it's rare?
I am so sorry you have to go through all of that! I am praying for your complete and quick recovery.

Not normal at all. How are you doing now?

Oh my, you've been thru quite a few things. Good luck, take care.
TheWombat, good reminder about a robe. Those hospital gowns are less than helpful at covering, so a light robe would be smart, thanks.
White Dove, thank you. Just getting an idea since I'm a supporter. It looks like you really don't stay long, so no need for anything frilly, right?
Good Morning!

I don't think I used anything other than my phone (and charger). I slept most of the time I was there...
The only things I used were shampoo, toothpaste & toothbrush (they'll give you that, but it's nice to have your own). If you're only staying overnight, you won't even need shampoo. If you're staying two nights or more, pajamas or a robe would be nice for walking up and down the corridor. They'll want you to get up and walk as soon as you can to prevent blood clots.
