I had my surgery October 1st. I purchased a recliner which really helped to sleep in. I also had a lot of clean washcloths for my shower including a shower chair. Other than that it takes time. I am still recovering.

The recliner was electric since you will not be able to manually do it, too much pressure on the sternum

recovery is a very personal thing, so don't judge yourself on how others recover. Take care of yourself
