I think this could make a good article for the article section once everyone chimes in. Just a thought.
I was recently in and out of the hospital, too. I kept my hair in two braids. When I couldn't do it, I had someone else do it for me. When I got home (but was still pretty handicaped from abdominal surgery) I still kept it in two braids, but added coconut oil, too. Kept the braids in place longer and my hair loved it.
As for washing it... I didn't worry about it at all until I was capable. Natural scalp oils will take care of your hair.
