Replying to Torn rotator cuff... what do I expect?

Pac2:
So the other day I fell do a k fed, got caught up and spun out of the rail and caught both my edges on the landing and basically just catapolted straight to my shoulder. It hurt pretty badly and I heard a pop, my body just felt like something wasn’t right. I continued to ski throughout the day and even took some more crashes I have to say it was pretty tender but now it’s been one day since the crash and it’s impossible to lift my arm forward and laterally without feeling immense pain. Went to the doctors and took and x Ray, no broken bones but they are pretty sure I tore my rotator cuff, to what extent is unknown but I’m most likely getting an mri soon, if it is torn I’m going to be really depressed. Not looking forward to surgery or recovery but I’m just wondering if anyone has had this injury and I want to know what to expect as far as post surgery pain and recovery.
