@@irishaggie & @@edie091371 You guys are making me hungry!!! My doctor won't let me have soft food until after Wed when I see him ;-( Getting tired of the Protein Drinks & broth! I think when we leave the dr's office were heading for taco bell for the refried beans! Has anyone tried guacamole? & how soon to be able to eat?

Did your doctor give you a puree stage or do you go straight from liquids to soft foods? I'm in a week of puree (the pintos (mashed) and cheese count as puree) then start soft foods in Thursday. All the docs are so different!

Quick question - My puppy sleeps with us. I'm getting ready for my antimicrobial shower tonight and am wondering if that means my puppy shouldn't sleep with us tonight even though I take another antimicrobial shower in the morning before surgery. Any thoughts?

@Miracle. I wouldn't worry about it, but that's me. They told me at the hospital you have a chance of getting a whole lot more there than at home!

Thank you all! I was worried more about his feelings than any possible 'microbes' he would be sharing. Stands to reason, and after all the trials and tribulations it's better to be safe than sorry. But if he goes, so does the husband. (LOL)

@@irishaggie No puree foods just straight to the soft foods at 2 weeks for up to 3 months. Not much longer, 2 weeks will be here Thurs.
