Equally I stayed in hospital wearing perfume, lipstick and my red pashmina - feels more human and individual! Helps the morale and recovery!

I'll have to remember that in case I have a "fart problem" after surgery. In the travel size/sample size section at Target, I bought a tiny little aerosol can of Oust air fresher. I bought it for my last cruise, because those tiny cruise ship bathrooms can get rank very quickly! It is barely bigger than a tube of lipstick, and has 80 sprays...very easy to carry in a purse, or to pack for traveling.

I agree with you about keeping up the morale by looking your best. My great-grandmother was 98 when she passed away, and was bed-ridden for the last 15 years of her life. However, I never once saw her without lipstick on, and neatly combed hair.
