Gift suggestions

Post by jdw »

My BFF is having back surgery this Friday and she will be out of work for at least two weeks. I need help with gift suggestions please. She does not like to read and owns all of her favorite movies. I would like to put a cute gift basket together for her - please send your suggestions.

Thanks!

My suggestions:
Gift certificates for massage, and/or take out /delivery food places, cleaning help
Yummy smelling candles
Chocolate
IOU for meals delivered by you, rides as needed
iPod
Bell to ring to let someone know she needs help
cute, soft comfy pj's

byado18 - Great suggestions! I especially like the idea of adding a bell to her basket. Her husband may not like it :lol: I hope I can find one!

Thanks again.

i assume showers and baths will be difficult for a while. maybe purchase some of those facial freshing towelettes. maybe some cute bandanas for pulling her hair back from her face. i would stick their freezer with some heat & serve foods too.

I had back surgery. Hand held games are great. Crossword puzzle books. Low calorie snacks. (I don't know how long she'll be out of commission and I didn't want to gain weight). Cute nightgowns for easy access. Slippers that you slip in to and don't have to bend over to put on.
Tell her to ice often . It will help in her recovery.
