🙃 I went *one day* without Someone-Is-Wrong-on-the-Internet-ing it. FFS.
But I popped on because have a question for you folks. A friend was in a terrible accident. Cane sugar processing machine caught her arm. She didn't lose it, but it's bad, and she's quite poor. She's been recovering at home.
Tomorrow I'm visiting with the biggest bag of rice I can carry, & panela & powdered milk. But for folks who've been laid up, is there a comfort item (medical, cosmetic) that made a difference for you?
@MLClark
Now this may be off base, not really “comfort,” but how about staples that otherwise she would have to run out and buy, like toilet paper, soap, (do people use paper towels there?), fem items, shampoo, aspirin?
Not off base at all, though since she's an Afrocolombian granny I'm not going to risk the wrong hair product, and fem items aren't necessary. But you're absolutely right that the husband's list of household needs (rice, panela, powdered milk) was never going to include everything actually key to making recovery easier. Cheers, GC!
