When I went for my surgery, I wish I brought/had......?

Hey everyone! I’m new here and getting my surgery date Wednesday. For those that have gone thru the surgery already, what are some things that you wish you would have brought to the hospital? Thanks in advance!

      Most people bring way too much, use the search feature to look for "what to bring" posts, there are quite a few lists folks have posted with what they brought, what was useful, what wasn't, etc.

    That's why I took Roux N. Rabbit with me, nurses probably thought Poor Thing, she needs her Sleepy Bunny, don't care if the thought I had regressed to childhood , she was soft and gentle against my Tum Tum! Thank you for marking her down after Mothers Day WalMart! Think I paid a dollar for hers best 4 quarters I ever spent!
