Re: laptops

[Guest guest]

I am in agreement with the no laptop answer. Hospitals do not want/and are

not responsible for the loss of anything expensive so they probably would

stear you away from bringing one. Also, I had all I could contend with just

managing the phone. I first was in the ICU and then a regular room and was

not up to much. Probably the medications. I brought a few magazines and a

book and never got to those.

Has anyone on this list been discharged to a rehab center or a Nursing Home

following their discharge from the hospital? I had to spend 6 awful days in

a Nursing Home nearby (one block from home) because Dr. Thayer thought I was

not ready for home. I thought I could manage at home. He didn't think so.

I have forgiven him - hehe. I love the man. He is great. Sally
