Slow Down, my friend... your moving too fast. Bodies heal at different speeds, often depending on your makeup and diet. Treat your body (skin) with more kindness... for a while and see what happens. You might have to use some mobility aids for awhile, until your skin has a chance to grow and toughen. Only then.... you can begin to avoid the temporary helpers.

Thanks for your input. I'm trying to avoid lifts, hoyers aides, etc.Before the surgery, I had no problems in transferring and being independent. I really want to avoid buying more equipment and being so dependent on them. I wantto transfer from the 'chair on to an activaid shower seat. Am I crazy? am I pushing my recovery too much? Thanks, Tom
