Hello Everyone,
My daughter’s surgery is scheduled for March 17 and I am trying to gauge how long she will be out of school. The doctor says kids typically rebound pretty fast after surgery and that most can go back to school three weeks after surgery. However, I’ve talked to a couple of parents and they said their kids did return to school after three weeks, but it was only for one class and gradually their children built up their school time over subsequent weeks. One parent said it took eight weeks for her daughter to return to her full time school schedule, the other parent said 10 weeks.
So here are my questions: How long was your child out of school and when they did return, was it for a full day? If your child returned to school on a partial schedule how long did it take for him/her to be able to last the full school day?
Also, I know many surgeries are done in summer when school is out, so my question to those parents is: How many weeks after surgery was it before your child felt like he/she could return to their normal daily routine?
Thank you!
