Last question pre op.

I read that dry shampoo needed as unable to wash hair. My shower is over bath but can I not wash hair sitting at handbasin using a plastic jug to wash and rinse as I used to do before showers.

    Alternatively go to th hairdresser. Mine rearranged things so that I could stand instead of sitting in the low chair by the wash bowl. Also waxed legs standing and did pedicure whilst I sat on a high chair. She even, when taxi's for return journey were not available drove me the 5 minutes home.
