The best thing for my dad is rest and recouperation. My mom and sister went to see him but he was in such pain they only stayed for a few minutes. Dad doesn't want any visitors right now. They are still going to see him later in the day.
My dad knew about the pain after surgery but I don't think he knew it was this bad. The doctor told him that it was going to be bad but it will get better as time goes on.
I think he will be fine once the pain subsides a little.
