A close relative of mine is sick and will unfortunately be spending Rosh Hashanah in the hospital. What can I send to keep her occupied? She's in her 30's. No food, please, I don't know if she can eat it.
Thank you

Cozy top & PJ pants or lap blanket. Hospitals are kept cold & the blankets there are thin & sometimes scratchy.

If you think she can drink, tea, especially herbal. There is usually only black tea to be found in the hospital.

Family photos? Board game or cards- maybe a volunteer will come by.

Print copies of recent Jewish inspiration posts for Tishri from websites in a language she reads.

Thanks. She'll have all the jewish magazines, and I'm thinking maybe a mordechai schmutter book would be good.
What about games? Someone will be with her. Are there any good new games for 2 people that can be played on yom tov?
