Nice hat, Wendy

I'm with K, though. A little color - say pink or red to match your robe - would have been more fashionable

I always find it interesting the different things the docs do - like different hats.
My cap was the same as yours, but I had a square pink foam bandage between the abutment and the cap. The cap actually held the bandage on and it was supposed to stay that way for 1 week. The second time I showered post op, I pulled my shirt over my head and prompted removed this bandage

Since the bandage had dried blood on it neither of my kids would put it back on for me, so I had to go to the doctor's office and have him do it. I felt like a complete idiot!
Like you, I was surprised by how little hair was removed from around my site - I thought there would be a huge bald spot and that isn't the case.
I also was surprised how close my abutment is to my skull. Post op I had a square area of my head that was kind of sunken and the abutment seemed to stick out a lot (at least IMO). With time, this sunken area "filled in" and my abutment became much closer to my head.
