Just joking , but after having a kidney removed , my husband does get to stay home from work for six weeks. Of course I’m hoping it won’t be that long. He came through it well and he’s back home resting after one night in the hospital. He now has six new scars from the laparoscopy nephrectomy . I won’t post a photo but you can Google it if you want to see how they do it . It’s quite amazing!
