HG gift baskets....

[Gracie]

Some poor soul mentioned in another post getting a gift basket of food when they went off work because of the hyperemesis.... it got me to thinking that someone out there should start a gift-basket service for HG sufferers and their families.

Anyone who wants to use the idea... feel free to take it and run with it! I am sure the ladies here will all gladly provide input as to what our ideal basket would consist of.

I think a gift bucket sounds more appropriate

[Gracie]

Point taken... now what to put in said HG gift buckets... rememebering this is still just a fantasy!

* a beautiful, shiny spit cup
* a packet of tissues to acompany said spit cup
* a little sign with #### off! (fill in gap with own word) to produce when being crackered
* a frame to put your first scan photo in
* a little silver pot (like babies' first curl pot) to collect all your hospital id tags in

Hmmm......!

Erin -

Your new picture really caught my eye earlier. So bright and cheerful, lovely!

[Atsie]

Thank you Mandy. I thought it was time for a new pic, she was 4 months in the last one and now she is 10 months old!

[Gracie]

Erin...

She's so big and adorable... time for another?

every OTC med available: meclinzine, dramamine, b6, unisom, etc. I'm thinking some Tums and other heartburn aids. Constipation aids like Colace or enemas and suppositories. Also, a 6 pack of Ensure. Also must include protective masks for smells.

Oh wait, no. There has to be a SPECIFIC bucket, generally used for survival and/or camping, but how appropriate.

The Ultimate HG bucket- two in one- both toilet and bucket. May recommend two of these, for when we need one at each end!

Teddi...

I love your bucket!! Perfect suggestion about the OTC meds.

Foodment:
I want some sour Jolly Ranchers or sour Skittles in mine...
End Foodment

I also want to add a t-shirt that I saw, it was green and said " It ain't easy being queasy" Unfortunately a fluffy was wearing it and thankfully I did not have the strength to march over and rip it off her back. The nerve of the fluffies!

Unscented deodorant & unscented dry shampoo for the days that we cannot even stand a shower but want to do something...

The 102 pack of panty liners so that we don't have to worry about peeing when vomiting.

I'm sure that I can turn this into an industrial-sized bucket!

I love it! My son came running when he heard me burst into hysterical laughter... when he read the picture, he commented that I should order myself a "Barf Buddy" bucket!

[HelenA]

The sad thing is, they really exist...lol and they are only $1.99!!

I think Gracie's lunch box provides a perfect illustration for the puke bucket. And Teddi's two in one is great, but we'd need two to efficiently wee-puke. LOL on all the art work, ladies .

[hollymom]

This is a hilarious idea!! I can't stop laughing!

[Atsie]

I love the lunch box, couldn't be more perfect!

[teddi]

LOL Helen I love it.

No, see the smaller bucket is the perfect compliment to the 5 galloon one!! Great for wee puke. A trvel kit ! Love it.....
