Can you really talk to your therapist about this and try to make a decision with them? I hate to see you wait 2 weeks for pdoc and suffer that long (and it could get worse).

I take a bag with 3 days of clothes (all strings removed), slippers (no ties), toiletries, pajamas (warm ones), a few things to do, a fuzzy blanket, and I guess that's about it.

Strings, shoelaces, glass, caffeine, electronics (some hospitals vary) aren't allowed at my hospital.
