As it approaches, I'm scared and nervous. I'm gonna be laid up and I'm afraid I won't be able to even go to the bathroom without help!

That's a lot of stuff. I wish you a speedy recovery and easy surgery!!!! You will do wonderfully!! Do you not like the results of your tummy tuck or are you just getting the scar revised?

i am going to rent a electronic recliner lift. i called several home health care places and finally found one that rents them for about 100 per month. no down payment and only pay for one month at a time, no minimum amount of months to rent. i think this will really be a great help for me. good luck on your surgery. vick

EXPERIENCE WITHOUT REFLECTION IS HOLLOW

Those things are very uncomfortable, i my opinion. I rented a soft cushy recliner that will be delivered before I get home.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am outta my mind. But I want to get this over with for practical reasons (work schedule, a possible move on the horizon to the other coast, etc.).
