26 and counting
SO i have my count down going on. 26 more days until surgery.awhhh, l am so ready and excited. I'm about ready to pack my bag, but wondering what all i'm going to need.
You won't need much, really. I took my iPad and my phone, but didn't even look at either one. What I did use a lot of was LIP BALM! I had to wait almost 24 hours before I could drink anything ****il after my leak test) and thought I would die of thirst. The hospital gave me some cozy slipper sox for walking around and I didn't even want to read the book or magazine I brought. Just make sure you have comfy, loose pants to go home in.
Best of luck!
Thank tracey. The lip balm is definetly a requirement. It's a daily must have for me anyway, so i knw i wouldn't be caught going to surgery without it. lol i already have a bad habit of licking my lips all the time. could you imagine the cold cores i'd have without it in this weather. lol okay let me stop trippin on myself. but thanks. i know my ipad and phone will be there with me also, just in case i decide to use them.
I have learned from these forums that I'll only need lip balm and a pillow for the drive home.
(Of course I'll also take my phone and kindle, and the associated cords.)
