I've had two shoulder replacements and did not attempt to get dress for the first two weeks. Just wore loungers. I wore a bra that tied in the front with zippers. My husband was a great help in helping me get dressed. I did not go out for the first month, rested at home and was quite spoiled by family who would come to visit and help out.

Now my only concern is there might very well be a strike at the hospital where my surgery will take place, and it would most likely be postponed. That would be unfortunate because I am mentally ready to get it over with.

I knew I should’ve kept one of those three husbands
