John, we will be thinking about you as you go through this. This is very doable and your good health will carry you through. I never felt pain of any kind at any time and you shouldn't expect any. Time will pass quickly and you will be home soon. It is an interesting experience. Everyone on the 14th floor will be helping you. You will have a nurse assigned to you for up to three days before a change to a different nurse (for both day nurse and night nurse).

Your remodeling project is of interest. I thought I would be confined to a downstairs bedroom following discharge. To my pleasant surprise the stairs were not the problem that I anticipated. I did put in a couple of suction grab bars in the shower that were very helpful. For the first couple of weeks following discharge they helped.

I wish you the very best.
