I have noticed that almost everyone says to not tell anyone about their surgery because of all the negativity, and I really don't want anyone to know about mine. I have two sons and my elderly parents. My problem is, since I'll have to stay in the hospital overnight after the surgery, what do I tell my mother? I call her every evening and I worry that I'll be too groggy or in some pain to talk to her without having to tell her if she suspects something is not quite right. One plan is to tell people I had hernia surgery, which I will since I have a hernia that will be repaired. Any ideas? I don't want to lie. My husband agreed with me about this.
