    Maybe a friend or family member would be willing to prepare and deliver the meal to your hospital room. Set it up ahead of time with the staff there and maybe have an hour or two where you both won't be interrupted, invite her up since its V-day and surprise her with a nice and (as much as it can be) romantic dinner ....

    It'll work ... she'll be surprised and know that your thinking about her, even though everything that's going on is getting in the way.

      Does it HAVE to be on the 14th?

      maybe you could work something in before going into the hospital (as a surprise?)

      I hope the docs can find whatever they are looking for and you can be done with this hospital stuff SOON.
      There's always something new to learn.

          THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS!
          For your female significant other...
          1) The "gift" is not as important as that you put thought into it and didn't do it at the last minute.
          2) The "gift" does not have to be expensive, as long as you put thought into it and didn't do it at the last minute.
          3) Where you do dinner is not that important as long as you put thought into it and didn't do it at the last minute.
          4) THE most important thing is to make her feel that you still have the "hots" for her, so make a move, and put thought into it and don't do it at the last minute..

                  cook ahead of the date. the date has expectations anyway...

                      Listen to Gail. She's one of them wimmings (as Popeye would say). She knows this stuff. And I'd suggest you show her this thread - maybe on Valentine's Day. I'll wager she'll be impressed and moved that you were working on ways to come thru on your promise even if stuff happens that's out of your control.

                      Seems to me like you're a pretty good guy to keep this on your RADAR even when you must have so much to worry about.

                            Do the dinner the night before you go in, then bring a couple of candles and a radio to put music on and have some food and flowers delivered to your room.
                            I'm probably wrong

                              The chocolates and so on..... I think Gail was saying that ANYTHING that shows that you were thinking of her and didn't just try to throw something together at the last minute will make her happy. Get some kind of candy (maybe Godiva if she likes that) that you CAN'T get at the gift shop and sneak it in with you (or arrange for a buddy to smuggle it in) so she knows it wasn't a last minute thought. It's the forethought that counts.

                              Don't listen to Tedly - he's a booger eating moron!
