    Watch movies, talk, laugh and just keep your friend company. Offer to help out but other than that, just act like your friend is not sick. If your friend asks for sympathy, lay it on heavy. Just have fun. Both of you are missing each other and this is a great time to catch up on all the things you are missing out on.

Warnings

  • Chicken pox is contagious.
  • This only works if you've already had chicken pox in the past as following primary infection, there is usually lifelong protective immunity from further episodes of chickenpox. Otherwise, just stick to the phone and/or computer.
  • If you are under 18, check with your parents before visiting. Parents want the best for you so respect their decisions.
