VT Surgery

So a 42-year-old relative of mine goes in for her six to eight hour Ventricular Tachycardia surgery today. While she is hardly a shrinking violet, this is a pretty complicated heart condition and am looking for tips to aid in her recovery. While she realizes that 'heart surgery' will become a way of life, we're all trying to find ways to help her heal faster. Has anyone undergone VT surgery before? What tips do you have to make the transition easier?
