Laptop in hospital or no?



Recommended Posts

My surgery is at 1pm.... I am planning on 2 nights/3 day stay. Will I have any use for my laptop? I don't want to be bored in hospital.... do you think I will be sleeping much of the time?

Have someone bring it to you the second day. The first day is a little blurry.

I only took my cell phone & that was all. I was sleeping or walking most of the time so I didn't have that moment where I was bored lmbo

I took my cell phone and iPad. I never got on my iPad at all. It was the same for me, I was either walking or sleeping.< /p>

My laptop is too much of a beast(gaming laptop) to bring to the hospital for 1 or 2 days. So i will be bringing my tablet. good enough for what little bit i will hopefully be in bed.

I just had my cell phone, I was on a morphine pump so I hit that button all the time. By the second day all my waking moments were me walking around, then I would go back to bed hit the morphine and sleep. I personally did not have any use for the lap top, when I was not sleeping or walking I was just watching TV.

I don't think you'll need it. Take that time to rest or sleep. I wasn't up for that at all.

I'll probably have my tablet and phone but plan to sleep and rest as much as possible. I have been wondering if I will get bored but I have a feeling there will be no time for that.

I got bored, hence the iPad......I don't really watch TV, you can only walk so much, sipping Water doesn't take much thought....so my 2 BFFs amused me via text and Facebook while I was trapped in the hospital. :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
