Trying to have a normal birthday...umm advice?

So it's my birthday in 15 days and my aunt and uncle want to spend it together with me - I love them dearly and I'm very happy about this. But I've been bedridden for a while and I don't really know what to do?? I'm not used to doing normal things anymore so I freak out when I have to choose something normal >< Also they asked me I want as a gift and I have no idea of that either. Ehhh I'm a mess, I don't know how to do things anymore. Kind of feel ridiculous about being stuck on this but I'm sure I don't really have to explain how hard things like this can be
My functional level is: I can walk a bit now and I can leave the house in my wheelchair for a couple of hours so I can go places. Eating is a bit of a problem at the moment because I can only eat plain food and not that much of it (thanks, digestive system ><).

You'd have to check if the terrain is wheelchair friendly as I guess some gardens may not be.
I really like @chiarieds' idea of the garden centre as it covers the gift too.

I like being by water it makes me feel so much better
Either way I hope you enjoy your birthday and dont let your condition beat you enjoy some freedom and fresh air for a change
- IOU a film day
- IOU a trip to a garden centre
- IOU a games day (board games, card games...)
I got something like this a few years ago and it was the sweetest. It meant I could 'cash them in' when my health allowed me to. It also was filled with quality time with the people I care about.Scope
