Anyone had colpocleisis surgery? I want to learn more

It turned out that my mother was put back on her blood thinner too soon--5 days post-op--considering the extensive work the urology surgeon did for her significant prolapse. She almost passed out in the night, and had an ambulance ride to go back to the hospital for a blood transfusion, wait another week for the blood thinner to start, and now--2 months post-op is doing very well.

My mother did several weeks of work with a PT who specializes in pelvic floor work. I think this really helped her to have a great outcome so far.

I’m supposed to have this surgery in June and I am very apprehensive about it and also the recovery afterwards. How can you have a prolapse come back if you’re sewn together? Also, any ideas on after surgery as far as foods to eat that will make my bowels move extremely well would be very helpful to me. Thank you.
