Here are a few things that I found helpful. If you are going to a large cancer center, bring a rollling back pack or small rolling carry on case. Fill it with a bottle of water, snacks of our choice, puzzle books (crossword etc), small travel pillow, lotion, chapstick, wet wipes, hand sanatizer, gum, magazine or book to read. If you do needle work or something like that, take some of that along. I packed fresh fruit-grapes were my favorite. It helped not having to carry everything in my purse. I usually just left my purse behind and put everything in the cart. Don't get in a hurry. Hospitals live on a different time zone. Just take it a little at a time. Prayers for all.
