I am heading to the Cleveland Clinic for surgery on 4/4/12. We are taking a train out there to Chicago and driving to Cleveland. My plan as it stands now, is to drive back to Chicago a few days after being released and taking the train back home to Denver. The train ride would last 18 hours and we have booked a sleeping room. Am I crazy? I have put in a call to the wonderful nurse who has been assisting me in Cleveland to obtain some advice on how long they recommend that I should stick around after my release. I am also curious to see what she thinks of my return itinerary. If my return idea gets poo-poo'd, I would fly home with my sister instead. For those who have taken a trip for their surgery, please let me know:
1. How long did you stay in town after you were released?
2. Did you travel via car on your way home?
3. What, if any, were your travel recommendations from your doctor after your release?
4. Am I insane to even be considering taking the train home?
Thank you in advance for any advice. I have truly appreciated all of the interaction that I have received from the wonderful people on this site. It is truly a blessing to have this tool to serve as a guide on what to expect.
Have a great day!
Tom
