Spinal Fusion, Mayo FL: What to Expect /Prepare for Hospital Stay?

I’m a busy, active 60-year-old woman and am having T2-Pelvis spinal fusion surgery at Mayo Jacksonville on April 14th. They told me to expect to stay for 7 days. I’m looking for input on what to pack and what to expect in the hospital. They told me I’d be there approximately 7 days, I’ll have a private room, and the nursing staff will try and get me moving each day. Dr. Abode said he would plan to see me when he does rounds. Other than that, it seems like there is a lot of time to fill in-between. I feel like I want to bring things to do, but maybe I’ll be so out of it or in so much pain I won’t feel like it. Will I be able to wear my own clothes at some point, or will they expect me to stay in a hospital gown?
