So... a regular of mine, who I consider a friend as well, has had... let's say a serious health setback. The short version is: diabetic, foot infection, ER... emergency life-or-death leg amputation followed by an induced coma, with more surgery to come tomorrow or Saturday.
He'll be hospitalized for as long as the doctors feel is necessary to get the infection dealt with, and however long they hold onto people in similar situations, almost certainly followed by placement in a medium-to-long-term rehabilitation home.
Help me out guys, what the hell do I do now? This is waaaaaaaay beyond my experience. What can I do to somehow help him, in a way that won't feel condescending, or otherwise hurtful?
Literally the only thing that has occurred to me would be to pull all food from his apartment that will spoil within the next, say, month... but that doesn't really feel "helpful" to me.
