I have had back surgery which left me with scar...

I have had back surgery which left me with scar that starts at the front of my stomach and reaches around to just below my bra strap. I have also had a C section and have lost 80-90lbs which has left me with a significant amount of hanging skin. I would love to be able to where a bikini one day the last time I wore one I was 10 years old and my back surgery was performed when I was 15 and left me with a huge scar. I am so excited to have booked my surgery!!! Now for the count down. I will post pre-op pics closer to the date.

2 weeks pre op

I decided to add some before pics, I'm completely disgusted. Unfortunately the dr told me he wouldn't be able to rove any of my scoliosis scar. He says that it will likely be moved closer towards belly button. Oh well still no bikini but at least I will look good in a one piece and into clothing. My mood is switching between excitement and having anxiety about the pain. I have continued to lift weights because the nurse told me that having my other muscles strong will help with recovery.

Question

Just a few more days and am I ever paranoid about getting sick! Everyone at work has a crazy head cold and my doctor does not want me taking anything herbal because it is suppose to induce swelling. So I have been eating fruit and washing my hands like crazy! I can't imagine getting a head cold and coughing my fool head off during my recovery. Anyway I have a question? Has anyone purchased one of those rectangle pillows to go underneath your knees while you sleep. Was it worth it? and how long did you use it for?

Loved everything about my dr and his staff I doubt my results would be this good going else where. I'm sure having scoliosis is a PS's nightmare. He positioned my scoliosis scar so it is less noticeable, he took more fat out of certain areas and took less in other areas so that I look more straight
