After spending a significant amount of time in the hospital I found a portable router, Android TV/Chromecast and a universal tv remote to be really useful
They are in my go bag now for when I have to go last minute and get checked in
Not sure if you're being serious, but being in extreme pain and/or drugged out of your mind on painkillers, TV is often the only good thing to do in that situation. Podcasts work too, but something stupid please.
