Terrific that you do have good support with your friends, @Dobbo xx. Lean on them. They will be wanting to help you in any way - after your surgery, it could be many things, like mowing the lawn, hanging out the laundry (as you'll not be allowed to do anything 'heavy' for a little while ......
Also consider joining the Reconstruction group - you can chat about your upcoming procedure - and may be able to see pics, similar to what you are having done. Jump on here & click 'join' ....
https://onlinenetwork.bcna.org.au/group/1-choosing-breast-reconstruction
Try & keep as busy as you can, leading up to your op, doing things you love to do ..... maybe cook some favourite meals and freeze them, so you have yummy meals ready for when you get home after the op xx
You will feel so relieved after it is all over - don't use Dr Google .... as a lot of info is old & won't relate to your diagnosis xx
take care & all the best
