What to pack

Mar 12, 2014

Well my house is pretty spotless; hopefully my hubby will keep it that way while I'm in hospital.  He can't stay over-night with me because he will have to come back home to see about & care for our dogs.  Love him but I'm guessing he would just watch tv & I'm gonna want to rest I'm sure; My Ma has offered to stay with me & my daughter too but I keep telling them I'll be fine; all of them are already going to be there all day tomorrow with me anyway. 

So what to pack: Nutritionist said not much & as y'all know I'll get toiletries there but I'm bringing my own small body wash, deodorant, my own wash-rag - I always do that, even though everything at hospital is clean I want to wash with my own stuff! my own toothbrush, some chap stick, a nightgown, two house-coats, 1 thin 1 warm, & some slippers + of course the comfy clothes I come in I will wear home too because I won't have em on long enough in the morning before I have to put on the dreaded backless standard issue sexy hospital gown.  I'm Proud of myself because I was able to fold, roll & fit all of the above into a small/medium sized tote bag; & it's not anything heavy- similar to a normal size big purse.  I Did this so my people wouldn't have to lug around a huge bag of un-necessary stuff + I've over packed for a hospital stay before & learned my lesson.

So many folks have called me today to wish me well, & I want to thank those of you on here again that have sent me emails or blog or post replies.  I'm thankful to have met you ALL & look forward to us keeping track with this journey & staying in touch.  Thanks to all my well wishers & kind word givers.  God Bless
