Hi,
In the middle of the night (I'm not sleeping a lot at present) another worry suddenly came into my head and I wondered if anyone had any advice. does anyone have experience of using a hoist to lift a teenager postop? We use a hoist all the time with Genevieve - she's just too big for it to be safe to lift her otherwise and I'm just concerned that it might be really painful afterwards.
I'm also worried whether she'll be able to sit in her toilet chair (Chaley toilet chair) as it is kind of curvy and her fusion is going to be so long that I'm not sure she'll be able to bend enough to use it.
There's so much going round in my head and I just wish we had a definite date. We got a letter at the end of January saying op would be in 6-10 weeks - that's four and half weeks ago and still no word. Every time the post comes my stomach turns over.
