Are any of you familiar with a harness-type thing called the Heart Hugger which you wear after open heart surgery to give added support when coughing, etc.? I'm trying to figure out if that would be more helpful to me than a pillow post-op: I have lung problems and I pretty much know coughing will be an issue for me. Has anyone used it and thought it worthwhile - or do you think a pillow does just fine? It's not cheap! (I think $95 or so...)
The folks on VR have been so helpful to me: I'm less than 7 weeks out from surgery and the more I find out, the less fearful I am. Thanks! I just want to be back on my feet when Baby Hannah arrives in late June. I guess I just get to hold her when she's placed in my lap!
