My lovely DM had a cardiac bypass last Monday. She is a fit, otherwise healthy 82 and is recovering brilliantly, now back on general ward and more mobile each day.
I am going to stay with her for a week or so when she is discharged to care for her and support my stepfather (85) who is lovely but a bit thrown by all this. Another family member will then do a stint.
Would really welcome any advice or tips for post CABG care and support.
I’m reading up on nutrition and am particularly interested in anything to help with gently encouraging appetite. Also tips for general well-being plus wound care (for chest and leg).
Thank you.
