Jana, I wish you the best of luck in your recovery. Be aware that this is a very extensive operation and you will not get out of the hospital for 5-7 days at the earliest. Because they have to open up your chest cavity to get to your esophagus, you will have chest tubes placed. You will be on all intravenous fluids and medications until your esophagus heals up a bit. Not even a sip of water for you! No going home in a day or two! Some patients are in the hospital up to 10 days depending on how things go. Not to scare you, but so you can plan for your husband to have the care he needs while you are in the hospital.
Before you go in, I would recommend getting a really good blender so you can prepare healthy, low sugar liquefied meals. Really, really stay away from the sugar.
