    Surgery coming up. How far did you travel for surgery? Any suggestions for a six hour drive home?

    I am excited about surgery coming up May 16th but a little nervous about the drive home (I live in South Dakota and am traveling to Denver for surgery). I will stay in Denver for one week but then have a six hour drive home. Any suggestions on making the trip comfortable? In a week will I feel OK?
