Some of the posts I've read here got me wondering.
Did you dress each day right from the start when you came home post op?
Did you make yourself get out of bed by a reasonable time each morning or did you spend lots of time under the covers?
Did you join the family/your spouse at the dinner table each day or have your meals brought to you?
It never occured to me from any surgery (OHS and other) to not get dressed each day in street clothes. I found it imperative I be up and out of bed, into the shower and dressed even though I had a care giver here with me when DH had to return to his office.
I wonder if it helps us get strength back faster? If it isn't good for our mental state? Makes us feel 'less ill'?
You agree?
