Things that I'll be taking to hospital

[OKCPirate 5,323]

Where's the tequila and limes ?????

Just kidding.

I wasn't allowed to wear anything but their no-slip socks as far as footwear was concerned.

Most important things I took:

Pillow for ride home.....hold against abdomen and relax.

Post op pain med prescription filled for the ride home.

iPhone loaded with an iBook, iTunes and my earbuds.

Anker remote battery for easy recharges and no need to reach for a wall outlet...able to keep everything on my rolling table.

Gas-X strips were taken but never used.

Geez, why don't tell her to bring diet coke and straws? Oh and pizza coupons.

LONG cords for your chargers were helpful by the way. Slip on shoes were great.

Everyone was only simply trying to help. Your profile picture says "There is power in positivity" there certainly is but it begins within first. I pray that you have a great journey & realize that we are all here to be system of support & to learn through each stage.

No one was trying to attack you in anyway but for some reason you seem really sensitive, I was pretty grouchy on the pre-op diet as well so I get it. We can all learn & grow from each other.

With much love & peace to you on your journey... Good luck!

Here's hoping that your life continues to be felled with joy and positivity.

Consider taking some nice gifts for your hospital caregivers, too. Something tells me they are gonna earn them.....

@@Dub Great post at 4:31.

I wish I knew what hospital; I'd call the OR, nurses stations and admins to alert them: Buckle up and hold on! Dang.

PS [7:35 PM]: After reading the OP's response to me [5:55 or so] and others, I will now add to the above...an English/spelling book; a book about proper syntax; and most importantly, a STAT psych evaluation immediately upon the patient's arrival.

The non-medical person in me is cracking up: are we being punked? (Didn't Alex just post something about this approach?) But the physician/surgeon in me says serious "psychochopathology," maybe borderline personality/emotion dysregulation? And we don't even have to be a medical person to consider that.

Y'all have fun here.

You know I wasn't going to say anything else but you are being absolutely ridiculous!

My dear if you keep running into drama on the forums, you ever stop to think hmmmm....maybe it's you. No one was being rude or manipulative as you said but simply offering assistance and telling you their experience. I'm sooooo glad you have the support you need and I also pray that you aren't so harsh with them. I also tend to believe those that are sooooooo happy with their lives don't feel the need to have to say it constantly. While I hope you are truly happy, I doubt it..

In the words on the late great Michael Jackson (because I know I shouldn't even respond to this)..I'm starting with the man in mirror, I'm asking him to change his ways and I urge you to do the same.

The best of luck to you on your journey..

I will now return to my joyless life.

Peace, love and happiness.

I am dying here. D'Sleeved may need to change her forum name if she ever wants to post again! LOL Did anyone pay attention to how many likes the POSITIVE comments got? I too brought all those things and never used any of them. In fact, I have a brand new box of Biotene still unopened. I preferred crunching ice chips to wet my mouth.
