OT Help getting a gift to a cousin who is going away to Med school

What kind of gift would you give someone going to med school?

In all honesty, maybe money? Med school's super expensive plus there's books and living costs.

Or maybe something for their dorm/apt?

YES money!!!! Med school cleans you out. That , or a gift certificate to starbucks (if one is near his/her school) or a restaurant nearby. Late night study sessions are common and there is always a need for a quick healthy meal.

TLC is the best gift though. Cards, email to let them know you are thinking about them. However, don't expect a whole lot of time or attention in return.

Care packages are nice too....favorite cookies sent when things are just a little too busy. Know it sounds corny but it is great to get that kind of stuff when you least expect it.

Couple more ideas...top of the line hand lotion is nice. Gloves and washing your hands all day really dries them out. But that may be a good gift later when your cousin starts clinical work
...gift certificate to Amazon for buying textbooks....actually you can gang up with other family members to give that gift. You cousin will spend a fortune on books.

Anatomy/Physiology coloring books. They helped me a lot when I was in nursing school.
