So unless something happens during the surgery that warrants them, I may not need them. Mine's on a Monday so I suspect my follow-up will be the Thursday of that week. I may have to ask K's brother to help me out there.

I was larger also.

It doesn't hurt to have things lined up for it. I did have some nurse friends lined up to help empty just in case. I figured it was easier to be prepared for it. I also had made sure the person staying the night with me could handle gross things in case I had them. That person later confided that he was glad I didn't have them, he was a little apprehensive of having to deal with the gross stuff but would have.

Wow you must be getting excited and nervous! Next week is a busy one for me but let me know if you need anything. In LA terms your place isn't that far from me!
