Post-op camping?

[ArcusX 216]

HI All -

While I'm sure the basic answer goes without saying - plan ahead and stick with your restrictions - from a practical stand-point (if you are a camper) would you have camped about two-months+ post-op? Car / Tent camping, that is... no RV, no backpacking, etc.

The only real hard part is setting up and breaking down, since my 8 & 10 year old boys are virtually useless in this area... I'm thinking the rest would be pretty enjoyable.

Appreciate your thoughts!

Two months post op ...? You'll be fine. As you said, plan ahead, be prepared (good advice for ANY camping). Physically, you will be fine setting up tents, chopping wood, hiking ...

Good opportunity to let those boys learn the set up and take down of tents!

I would worry if you were backpacking out to a site but since you'll be near the car, I'd say go and have fun!

And, BTW, my doctor said he has no concerns about me going to Belize about 9 weeks after surgery... vacation here I come!
