@linabazzi28, I'd like to add my welcome. I'm tagging fellow members like @sharonemma @sedonadreaming @clynnford @seathink @mari @jillianb who can share more about their recovery from deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap surgery.

Lina, have you found accommodation and caregiving services for post surgery? What questions do you have as you prepare for surgery?

Hi Colleen, not yet. I’ve been exploring different options. Most likely will stay at the Kahler hotel. There’s a private company that provides special care & requesting a minimum of 3 hours to come &check on me. (65-75$ per hour) which is kinda costly. I’m just wondering if I’m able to be on my own after I’m discharged.
