<human>: So my boyfriend of ~1 year is getting surgery next week related to a sports injury. I took off work the day of to be with him/take him home from the hospital (we don't live together). Unfortunately I have to work the next two days but I think I can do half days and/or work from home. I basically told him I'll make myself available for whatever he needs - cooking, laundry, amusement, etc. I figure he'll sleep mostly but still.

He confessed to me he is nervous. I am confident because he is going to one of the best hospitals in he region, and told him everything will be fine. But I've never undergone a serious surgery or had to care for someone who has, so what should I do to prep for this? I figure we'd need to stock up on food/meals beforehand, since cooking will be an ordeal. But what else would be helpful? What is NOT helpful?

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: Boyfriend is getting surgery, I'll be looking after him and want to make sure everything is covered. Also want to cheer him up as much as possible.
