I ment my surgeon (guleph) on May 28th and surgery was on July 19th, so I do think you will be recuperating with house guests, but if they support you then they should understand...Good luck with your surgery!

From my experience I would say your will be able to enjoy your company, and have your surgery a few weeks after, but I go to Guelph so it could be different for you in Hamilton.

Good Luck on Novemeber 9th :-)

Which surgeon are you meeting with?  If it's one who does the surgery at TWH (Drs. Penner, Okranic or Jackson), I estimate that you'll have your surgery early in the new year (January).  If it's one who does surgery at TEGH (Drs. Cyriac or Aarts), I'm guessing it will be late February or even March.  They seem to book a bit further out than the TWH based surgeons. 

Good luck at your surgeon's appointment!
