I qualified for a CI in January and just saw the surgeon last week. His estimates surgery will happen sometime between one to two months from now. I know I’ll have lots of questions but right now I have one that’s on my mind.
I asked the surgeon if I needed someone to stay with me the night after the surgery. He said it’s a good idea, but not absolutely necessary. I’m a widow in Ohio and my family lives in Boston. They are talking about coming out to “help”.
Do I need them here? Did any of you need help after the surgery?
