Hi Derek!
Having read your page and heard you described by your lovely wife, I know you're going to come through this with flying colors! Hey, we're a Navy family too, trust me, this is going to be EASY for you compared to work! :) Enjoy the break. The best advice I have for any new post-op is if you're feeling down, try and focus hard and remember your determination and everything you learned before surgery. It'll pull you through, Bud! Best wishes on your surgery date and all the lovely things to follow. Together you'll do great!
