Thank you very much!
I am having it done at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.
I do have a lot of family support.

Someone will be with me all the time. My son-in-law is an interventional radiologist there.

I’m dreading the chest tube more than anything! 😩

Did you come back to your room with a catheter?

No catheter and the chest tube wasn’t bad at all. Just had to sleep on my back but with the pain meds wasn’t difficult. Just have to be careful getting up to bathroom. I was up walking in the hall with the chest tube and IV pole the evening of the surgery. I was 72 when I had my surgery so not a youngster. You will be surprised at how quickly you bounce back. Good luck!
