a shabbat spent at the hospital?    • e  Hi everyone,  I hope
everybody had a great Pesach! I have a huge favor to ask, my
friend is going for a surgery and will be staying at the
hospital for a full month.  Now, the hospital is 2 hours walk
from the closest Jcommunity. I need ideas on what to do to make
his Shabbat more enjoyable while he is at the hospital.  I know
we are supposed to talk only about food on the forum, however if
you have particular ideas not related to food, please feel free
to send me an email.  Food wise, I am sure the hospital will be
able to warm up the food that I am planning to prepare for him.
I dont see any problems other than the wrapping. If you can
think of any other hallachic issues, please feel free to mention
it to me.  I am thinking of possibly making small pastillas,
soups, Cholent / Tefinah, deserts  Any ideas, recipes? I need
plenty as he will be spending a minimum of 4 shabbos at the
hospital, Thanks a bunch
