The older man walked into the hospital and thought regarding the persons who view hospitals as germ-infested establishment with super contagions attacking healthful people rendering them sick with no cure, or the place-dying people come to die. These two assessments were true, but not to the older man, who felt as comfortable in one as his own home. His golf buddy (Phil) was recovering from lung cancer surgery; the cancer was contained within the tumor, the surgery was successful, and the recuperative amount of time would be shorter as the surgeon used a new technique involving less incisions. Phil and his wife (Lynn) were glad he came, and this was a good time as they just got rid of Phil’s chest tubes. The past four days a multitude of friends and family visited but didn’t know when to leave. He only stayed half an hour as Phil was tiring and necessitated his rest. People who visit friends and family in the hospital don’t take cues from the patient and ofttimes over extend their welcome. The patient is a captive audience and visitors don’t realize rest is the most important aspect of recovery. A visit amongst ten and fifteen minutes is sufficient to express their concern and let the patient know they care and love them. The patient’s significant other will have to monitor visitor’s time and ask them to leave when they see the patient getting drowsy. Walking out of the hospital, he neared a number of persons who were going to visit loved ones; passing them, he hoped they didn’t over stay their welcome, as the rest from time to time is more important than the visit. With kindest regards, Judowolf. |

Just ask her how long she wants you to stay with her. How long would you want her to stay with you if you were in the hospital?
Lucy
I think a lot depends on her condition. Is she tired and looking like she needs a rest or is she chatty and upbeat?
You can play it by ear. If her parents and boyfriend step out to eat for a while and she seems to want the company maybe stay longer.
Ask her how she is feeling and if she says tired or sore don’t stay as long. Let her do a good bit of the talking, be a good listener. If you want you can take her a little gift, balloon or flowers if not in intensive care.
Probably about an hour or less, if she is pretty tired probably more like a half hour. Since you are best friends she probably would like a longer visit from you than other people.
You can come out and ask her, say I’d like to visit but could you tell me when you are getting tired or need to rest since I don’t want to stay too long. If she is the type who speaks her mind readily she may tell you.
You are nice to visit and a good friend.
Nicholas
I would say it depends on why she is in hospital.
Does she have a broken leg and is just laying around in bed bored out of her mind? Stay as long as you like and the two of you are enjoying the visit.
Did she have surgery and is groggy and out of it? Stop in to say hi and let her know you care about her, but don’t stay more than a few minutes.
Is she receving treatment for an ongoing illness such as cancer? It is likely she will have bouts of feeling okay and then the absolute opposite where she may need to be sick and the like. Call that one by ear. If she’s up and about, stay a little longer. If she’s feeling sick, maybe just stop in for a couple of minutes.
