Video games!!! I find that hours can be spent plaing video games without realizing it. (Well, if he's into that sorta thing.)
I agree with KoH about the isolation thing. It sucks being alone and confined. My 9 1/2 days in a hospital 2 years ago seemed like forever, but when my friends were there, time would just fly. Mainly, they would just talk to me and watch TV with me, since I was really in no condition to do much else. (I couldn't even concentrate enough to play cards.) One friend brought me a coloring book and crayons though - that really helped, believe it or not.
