Purchase a toilet bar (attaches to the toilet, provides arms on either side to help you stand up), locate the toilet you will be using, install it now! Shower chair. Extension on the shower head so you can do some/most of the work bathing. shower curtain so your helper can more easily help you. Extra towels to throw on floor so you can quickly mop up spills. slip resistant material in tub/shower. think about your floor when you are getting out! remove trip hazards!
Lose weight if necessary, it will help your recovery and future!
Find out if you need to lower the bed or arrange other sleeping conditions. Sleeping on the comfy chair for a few days might be an option?
Do everything Docs and Nurses tell you, do not alienate your wife!!!! If they say take it easy, take it easy! Bending over is a bad thing!
I have some choice dumacc remarks but others have already gone there so I will stop...
Speedy recovery! There's still lots of life to do and see!
My Mom's recovery went very well and she was in her late 80s. She is more active today than prior to the surgery!

I don't take scalps. I'm civilized like white man now, I shoot man in back.
