When you're in the hospital, you need to wear socks or slippers. Slippers can be difficult to put on just for a quick jaunt to the bathroom, but socks are too slippery on the slick floors. These socks are super cute and will brighten the day of your friend in the hospital. It's often hard to find presents that work -- flowers aren't allowed, food is too hard to eat or mail, and obviously they can't drink a nice bottle of wine! I've found that some warm and cute socks are a great little gift to pop in the mail.
