Gift for guy in hospital?

ACoochy · 02-25-12, 05:32 PM

Vixen, ALL sports guys love signed sports memorabilia....If put into a plaque it could maybe be hung on the wall. Something for him to look at when trying to beat the monotony of hospital...GL to your friend...

An MSU helmet would be pretty cool.

VegasVixen · 02-25-12, 05:46 PM

Both great ideas, but wouldn't be able to find either in time for tomorrow's visit... that's OK though, he lives in my neighborhood and I can have something waiting for him at his house when he goes home...

I was also thinking about getting him a couple tix for the NCAAB tourney round 2/3 in Greensboro NC (about a 2-hr drive from here) but the games are mid-March and I just don't know if he'll be well enough to attend.

Not trying to be disrespectful but would a hand job be out of the question? Guarantee that would blow any other gifts out of the water.

Will know more about his strength tomorrow when I see him. Kinda funny cuz we're both single and the friends we have in common have tried to get us to hook up for years... Instead we just became really good friends, we go out for dinners, drinks, to each others' houses, our dogs play together etc. but it never went anywhere beyond that.

Can be done covertly without nurses and doctors noticing anything weird.

Matches Malone · 02-25-12, 06:10 PM

You can pick this up at Walmart or Target.

Ghenghis Kahn · 02-25-12, 06:13 PM

I agree with frizzer

Best gift ever would be handjob

Simply show him you care and spend time with him. That is all that he wants I assure you.

Dutch · 02-25-12, 06:26 PM

Magazines. Depends on what he's into. I'd want sports and motorcycle magazines.

Oh and a handjob.

VegasVixen · 02-25-12, 06:38 PM

LOL OK guys thanks for the ideas. I'm headed out to the furman/woff bball game, but will check back in later. I really like the sports memoribilia idea, will look on the net later tonight, as there's no where local for that kind of stuff. I'll probably end up bringing some books/magz with me tomorrow, and order something else for later...

I'll letcha know how the visit goes

freeVICK · 02-25-12, 06:45 PM

FOOD! I mean greasy, salty, artery clogging food. Hospital food is the absolute worse. I was in the hospital for 3 days for a minor op. My uncle brought me burger and fries one day, and pizza the next. As stupid as it sounds, I will never forget that. Words can't explain how much of a moral boost you get from seeing a pizza walk through your door

The Kraken · 02-25-12, 07:53 PM

Slippers or really comfy fuzzy socks. Noce blanket or a nice pillow. Robe. All the comfy stuff is nice.
Comfy button up shirt. Jj gold rug.

vixen , do you believe in the power of prayer, I have good news, your friend has a great chance of getting well. At this time try to comfort him. I am not sure when and what type of surgery was preformed, laser surgery is very effective. I would buy him a book on meditation .I have books that will help your body heal itself.John Edwards Infinite quest.Another feel good book is The Power by Rhonda Byrne, these books work on the body and soul .As far as a nice gift just a nice hug and comfort him and let him know you believe he can improve every week.Vixen the cell type of cancer is more likely going to predict his outcome. Vegas I have a good friend in Vegas he an attorney by the name of glenn Lerner he is always on t.v they call him glenn lerner the heavy hitter do you know of him through commercials? just wondering. Vixen good luck , why don't you get him a gift for his pet. Let him know when he feels better you will walk your dogs together . G.L.

^^seriously is this guy a character or a real person?

VV

for Carolina girls

VegasVixen · 02-26-12, 12:04 AM

OK so here's the short-term plan...
Bring books/mags tomorrow & asess how he's doing. Possibly bring 1- snuggly things or 2- yummy things next time I see him. Of course offer love & support, and just hang out & watch the games with him (which is what we "normally" do)...
Offer to watch his dog "mulligan" for the next week or so... she's probably at his sister's house & she can be a handful. Besides, my dog "blackjack" enjoys her company.
I'm hopeful he's in good spirits, he's generally a positive guy and I'd expect his approach to this to be "I'm gonna kick cancer's ass" but who knows how one would actually handle it when it happens.

Thanks again to all you guys for the ideas. Hope your friends & loved ones are never in this position...

neverstoppers23 · 02-26-12, 01:57 AM

well you being there would be enough if you ask me, a guy who has been in the hospital for months at a time. and have been in a hosptial for at least two weeks six years straight now.

but i always enjoyed when someone brought me food, because the hospital food sucks ass. even though some are much better then others its still not top quality.

cash is always good too.

DOMINATER · 02-26-12, 10:30 AM

In the drink , how would you like me speak to a young lady, like most of these guys telling her to give a hand job or blow job for a gift, listen I am in my 60's and saw many of my close friends in a hospital bed recovering from brain cancer how about you. have you ever really seen a good friend so ill that they are crying and suffering in pain and there is nothing you can do for them. Try to have class as you go through this hell hole of a world, would you want me to talk to your sister or mother politely or would you suggest that they should blow someone. Be a gentleman to the opposite sex it just may payoff , and keep your ass hole fukking comments to yourself, because I'tt teach you what its like to deal with a real motherfukker,punk.

DOMINATER · 02-26-12, 10:37 AM

Vixen sorry I exploded on that guy , I wish sometimes that I had better contol of my temper. Just feel like there is not much I can do ,and I hate to see you in this awful position. lets hope your friend makes a full recovery.

A book about Lance Armstrong and how he defeated cancer. How much more inspiring could anything be than that?

will2survive · 02-26-12, 10:48 AM

One of those rubber bracelets with underlying meanings. People believe in them. Example: Strength

Just look at my avatar, that will tell you where my softspot in life is. Good luck
