How ironic ~ I had a shoulder replacement in December.
I had the same experience, taking all my own food. The hosp.
menu was actually frightening! As with your husband, the staff
was blown away with how well I was doing.

  :-)
  I know, my doc NEVER asks about what I eat.
  My husband was in the hospital in Dec. The food they served him was
  pathetic.
  I brought most of his food for the few days he was there. And THEY never
  asked
  what he ate!!....just marvelled at how healthy he was and how quick his
  recovery was
  (mytral valve repair).
