A A lot of rest was necessary for Gordon. We made a long trip one day--10 hours- and it was obvious this would not do, so we then went 4 hours a day and simplified our trip the rest of the way. He simply needed much more rest. Years ago a friend who is a RN told me not to worry about so much sleeping. Anyway, if you feel uncomfortable with recovery, do talk to your Doctor. I do think the euphoria post-op is a common phenomena and now it's more normal time. Regards- Thea Lou Seese CG Gordon/69/21
