Please help me make a list.

I am within a couple of weeks from my lap rny and am making a list of things I will need. I know I will need the basics (deodorant, brush, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc.), as well as sugar free breath mints and possibly tongs for extended reach (I got that idea from this website!). What are some other items I may ned while in the hospital and within the first week at home? I know my surgeon will let me know of the vitamins, so that is covered. I also am planning on getting a recliner before then to help me sleep. Please tell me things that you used or wish you had known about. I like to be well prepared. Thank you all.
