In a perfect world maybe, but let me tell you what happened when they tried
to immobilize Miss P with wrist restraints tied to her bed side rails after
her angioplasty (also done with a groin incision).  The little monkey
proceeded
to turn summersaults in the bed.  I tell you this mostly because I don't
want
you to worry too much about the incision coming open again.  Philina's
didn't,
so I seriously doubt that Candace's will either.
