Packing for hospital??

Hey all,

Will you help me with this list??

My surgery date is August 1st and I'm trying to make a list of things that I might need while in the hospital and during initial recovery.

I only have:

Gas x ??

Comfortable/loose clothes

I was in the hospital for 3 days (12/30-1/1). Stuff I actually used in the hospital was chapstick (my plan did not allow me to take anything by mouth for about 24 hours so my lips were so dry), flip flops, a nightgown, fresh under garments, my phone charger, magazines, a hair brush, deodorant and a tooth brush. It felt good on the last day when I was being discharged to brush my hair, teeth and put clean clothing on after feeling pretty crappy for 2 days.
