how long will you be in the hospital? i was only there for one night

and i just brought some clothes to go home in, a coloring book (which

i never used), and a stuffed animal. i'm 26 by the way, just in case

the coloring book and stuffed animal threw you off. lol! my dad

brought a pad of paper and a pencil - which came in very handy.

everything else, the hospital provides. they gave me some vaseline

for my lips and ice packs. you might want a hairbrush too or

something. i mean, you're not going to look glamorous by any means,

but sometimes i feel even worse when my hair looks bad. mine is

naturally curly, but i blow dried it straight before the surgery so i

wouldn't have to hassle with crazy, ratty hair. oh, also, i normally

wear contacts, but you're not allowed to have them on during the

surgery so i had my glasses with me. i brought my contacts just in

case, but i never put them in.

i think that's about it. if you're only there for one night like i

was, then pack light... you'll be too out of it to read the first day

and then too antsy to get out of there the next day.

i've been eating 's Soup at Hand (i still have to strain it

though), slim fast shakes, ensure and tonight i'm going out with a

girlfriend of mine for milkshakes at Baskin-Robbins... i've been

craving a chocolate/peanut butter shake.

good luck!

Have a look at Fiddlesticks' geocities website on orthognathic

surgery. I believe there are links on this site, and I know they are

on oss2. There are lists, suggestions, etc. Even recipes.
