Will I need assistance during recovery?

[Lawrence13]

Im about a month out from surgery with Dr. Eid. I live alone in nyc and my girlfriend of 14 months left me about 5 weeks ago. I have no family near by. So I don’t really have anyone to help me through recovery should it become necessary. I’ve read recovery experiences ranging from “full blown living nightmares” to “ not really that bad.” It’s hard to get a sense of what the norm is…. If there is such a thing.

My question is this:

Will I be able to recover on my own with out any assistance?

I’m fairly self sufficient and will do all I can to prepare.

Any thoughts would be appreciated thanks.
