Another option for you all to perhaps consider is postponing YOUR celebration of Christmas...and perhaps doing a Christmas style meal once Yvonne is back home and things are more settled.
As for hospital entertainment at Christmas...that has to be a laugh of similar proportions to the Michelin grub joke.
Carol singers used to come round at some ungodly hour, but the only other entertainment might be some confused elderly person getting out of bed and showing a bare bum to the world.
Pay TV would be the only other bet...expensive too

Yes, Margaret, you are right, the grandkids do seem to accept that Nan is not well & are probably worried themselves, yet, at their age, they don't want to show it.
Hope the 'entertainment' is better these days than when you were on the wards!!

PS
we are cancelling C'mas for now, until Nan comes home!!
