hello! I'm posting here in hopes of receiving some information, tips and advice from other single moms (or who were single at the time of operation).
I have two kids ages 8 and 5 and I don't live near family unfortunately. I'm pretty isolated (long story) but have one good friend who can help me with transportation. She will pick me up from the hospital and bring me home. Other than that, I will be on my own. I am planning that my kids can stay with their dad on the day of surgery and the day after. The day following I will pick them up from school in the afternoon.
Do you think I am setting myself up for a disaster? If you've been in a similar situation can you please let me know about your recovery process and things you learned along the way, wish you had done or happy you prepared for?
Many thanks<3
