PROFILE

So far so good!!! A friend of mine who had work done highly recommended Dr. Geldner. I got that warm and fuzzy the first time I met him:) Dr. Geldner took 2.5 hours of his time (free consult) to really inform me on the procedure and all of the concerns that go along with a TT, as well as answer my list of a thousand questions. His office staff and Nurse assistant were all very cheery and warm. I know this is who I was meant to find :)

How do I break the news?

So, need a little help on this one...I have a 10, 8 and 6 year old all of which do not know what is about to happen. I'm planning on telling them soon, but not too soon...I don't want to frighten them. Question is...what do I say? I don't want to tell them the specifics, but I need to let them know I'm going to be down and out and not so much the mom they know for a little while. Any suggestions??

Welcome to the community.  You definitely do not need to give the kiddos details.  They are a little young to grasp the concept of this.  Simply tell them that you are having your tummy fixed so that you feel better.  Explain that you are going to need their help for a while after the procedure.  Don't mention the word surgery or they may freak.

Giving them little jobs to do during recovery will make them feel included and needed.  Could be something as simple as getting you fresh water.  They will do fine and be glad to be included in the process.
