HI Maggie

sounds about right, chapstick, i did bring my own nightgown , the ones they had were so huge i felt lost in them. I felt better in my own stuff, i just had to ask a nurse to unhitch the iv so i could switch into my own nightgown. i did bring some lotion to put on with a slight nice scent to make me feel more human also. a few magazines and that was about it.

good luck

I can't believe after all this time, almost a year and a half on the journey that I've finally gotten here and I feel totally unprepared and I can't sleep.I know I should bring some lip balm, like Chap Stick? Should I bring slippers? or sandals? What else? Should I bring my own nightgown? Robe?We had guests for dinner last night and I didn't drink any wine, and really tried not to eat too much. I was five pounds under goal this morning so I know I'll be fine...although I kept thinking that this was my last dinner as a civilian. I mentioned the upcoming surgery to my guests but I didn't say what it was for, just that I had to not drink wine or caffeine...Thanks in advance for any last minute help!Maggie
