I always take my own comfty, not afraid to get messy, pajama type pants and tops. I hate how open and revealing the hospital ones are.
If you have CFRD, definitely bring your own poker (LOL). The hospital's hurts like the dickens.
If you don't have a laptop, and you're in the adult ward, you might check in peds and see if they have a portable computer to bring you. Due to many donations, are peds unit seems to have a lot more things to keep you busy! <img src="">
And definitely bring your own shampoo. My hospital provides a combo body wash/shampoo that leaves my hair looking greasy. Ugg!
