How to support my wife after bowel resection

Hi folks,

I'm new to the forum. My wife is due to have a large polyp removed from her lower bowels next week - she needs a resection as its embedded itself into the bowel lining.

The reality is starting to kick in and I want to make sure I can support her as best I can, but haven't yet found any idiots guides or lists of ideas and i'm struggling on practical actions. Am hoping you may have some ideas or experiences you can share on:

Any suggestions / meal plans of stuff that will def be ok for her to eat (assuming she doesn't need a bag)?

Any ideas on things I can do or get in advance to make her more comfortable when she gets back from hospital?

Thanks so much in advance!
