Pre-Op Advice

I am a very active 31 year old female (krav maga, skiing, touch football, gym). I tore my ACL three weeks ago playing touch football. I'm having surgery in two weeks. What can you suggest in terms of preparation in advance of surgery? I'm in physical therapy so I have that covered, but can anyone suggest exercises to help build strength in my upper body to help with the crutches? Is there anything you've found particularly useful to have that I should purchase in advance? Is there anything else I should do in the next two weeks to prepare?

Thanks,
Cory
