No running, jumping, playing for 90 days. no beds or furniture, anything they can jump on or off of. no stairs for 1 month. if you would like more detailed information i'd be more then happy to help you out. You can PM me. Good luck with the surgery! |
I just feel the need to note that different procedures may have different rehab requirements/activity restrictions. I don't think we can compare apples to apples for sure unless we know both are apples! In other words, I would suggest that Shelby follow HER doctor's orders.
