Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are having surgery it is a big deal, even if you are having it as an outpatient. It doesn?t matter how long ago the surgical experience was if you ask anyone who has had surgery, I guarantee they will be able to provide you with an accurate accounting of what it was like. I wrote this book because of my own experience after surgery. I have been a Registered Nurse for over 30-years, over 33% of that time I was a practicing clinician taking care of patients who had had the very same surgery that I had. I was shocked at how I felt once I was home recovering and consumed with guilt about never having warned my patients about what to expect during the at-home recovery experience.
