Looks like I am coming into the thread a bit late, but it seems to me that cabin fever will hit sooner or later, and an outing of some sort would be nice, especially for someone who's used to being active.

I didn't see what sort of injuries your friend is dealing with, but things that will make "doing it myself" easier can't hurt either -- we all get tired of needing help after a while! It will also be time to re-enter the real world soon, back to work, or whatever. For a youngster who broke his arm and couldn't use his hand to write for a couple of months, a sketch book and pencils, along with a short lesson in "contour drawing" was helpful in developing eye-hand coordination so he could write better with his "wrong" hand. For DH, the fattest pens I could find (and there are many more options for people with gripping problems now) helped him, as he writes all kinds of notes as he programs computers. Possibly some easy on, easy off clothing that's not pajamas for real world time?

I hope your friend is feeling MUCH better by now!
