My mom completed chemo/rad a few weeks ago and will be having surgery in mid to late October. I will not be able to be there for her surgery/post surgery and wanted to send her something! I was hoping that some could share what they found helpful or useful during this time. She will be in the hospital for about a week after. Thanks everyone!

    good ideas
    Books are good...or Dvds or subscription to netflix. Cleaning service or food deliveries. Does she have help at home?

    Send her...

    ...cut flowers for love, a box of chocolate to sweeten her days and a colorful scarf to cheer her up.

    We took up money and sent my mom on a 4 day vacation to the beach. She couldn't go while on chemo.  She loved to get away And relax.

    gifts

    While I was recovering, some gifts I appreciated were a very soft blanket, humorous movies, and light reading books.
