To add to that - I'd say just give it a go - even at the simplest level
- half an hour before you go to bed, put it all in the machine, let it
mix/knead, turn it out into an oiled tin, leave it covered overnight,
then slash if you can and into the oven. You'll get sourdough something
- might not be anywhere near as good as you used to make, nor what you
will make again after the op. but better than nothing (or supermarket
"sourdough"!!!)
