Post-Op Advice for My Mom After Latarjet Surgery
Hello! My mom has had recurrent right shoulder dislocations since 2011 and is finally having Latarjet surgery this year.
Her surgery was originally in July but got postponed to September due to a cold. I live abroad, but I came home to help her through it. Unfortunately, I have to leave for classes on the day of her surgery and can’t change my flight.
She’ll have some help from family, but she mostly relies on me, so I’m trying to prepare everything I can before I leave.
What can I do to make her recovery easier at home? I was thinking about setting up the bathroom for one-handed use and getting a special pillow or anything helpful for sleeping and daily tasks.
For anyone who’s been through shoulder surgery or helped someone recover, what would you recommend preparing in advance? Anything you wish you had set up or bought?
Thank you!
