Hi Ladies I will be having a double mastectomy in a week and would please like some advice on what to wear and what pther ladies found helped them from clothes to drains to aftercare, Anything is appr...
All the best for your procedure, @Suzie82 ... I found the ear plugs (the yellow 'work ones') and eye mask as invaluable as hospitals have lights on 24/7 and are noisy places! xx. I find THESE ones are the best .... you squish them to the thickness of a pencil & shove them into your ear .. and they expand to take your internal ear shape. (DON'T get those ones with the bits sticking out of them ...... they are impossible to sleep with!)
We'll all be thinking of you xx. I hope you have plenty support when you get home - for the things we take for granted. ..... no heavy lifting for a while (including doing the washing & hanging it out ....) Maybe freeze a few meals over the weekend, so you've got some 'ready to go' when you get home?
