I can't remember if you mentioned this in previous posts or not. When I was little, I had high fevers several times. My mother would give me alcohol rubs to bring down the fever. The sharp smell of rubbing alcohol still brings back the feel of my mother's hands on my back. Physical stroking like that is supposed to be good for the immune system. Of course, it's VERY labor intensive for you.
If her bed is low enough to put a card table over it, a jigsaw puzzle becomes a possibility. If you don't have any jigsaw puzzles, there is a garage sale going on until 4 pm at the Nokomis Library (to fund Saturday hours) and I saw lots of jigsaw puzzles when I was there a little while ago. For that matter, a table or table-like surface makes all kinds of things possible, like origami, card games, solitaire with real cards instead of pixels, scrabble, and drawing.
