Hi Friends and Family

Christi has her back surgery scheduled for November 30th.  Mama Marge will be there for the procedure and after for a few weeks.  The first month will be the most intense but her recovery is over 3 months.  I will extend the cal out 3 months but we can adjust as needed.  

Thank you!

Give the gift of take-out. Seriously, the perfect gift for any situation.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it is take-out and everyone loves take-out. It gives your recipient the flexibility to order exactly what they want, when they want it. Pregnancy cravings are no joke. Neither is the stress level of a single parent on a school night. Young professionals who get sick often hate the loss of their own agency. The capacity to choose one's own dinner is not to be underestimated. Nothing says I love you like Pad Thai.
What To Express in Your Card: I wanted you to be able to choose your own meal. I am thinking of you!

This is the perfect gift for any family or any loved one with medical needs. Send help to those you love to provide care in the form of a CVS e-gift card.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because everyone has medical needs from time to time. Often, medical insurance with high deductibles eats into the ability of a family to cover unanticipated medical expenses. An e-gift card ensures that those you love get that which they need to heal - with adequate respect for their privacy. Perfect. This is very useful in any medical crisis in very specific ways. Supplements useful in various treatments are expensive and not covered. This is applicable to surgical patients, cancer patients, pediatric patients, and more. Medical equipment can be ordered - such as canes or walkers and your recipient can pay using their gift card.
What To Express in Your Card: What else do you need me to do? At the ready. xo

Why We Love This Gift: Whole Foods is a veritable cornucopia of outstanding food - fresh and delicious. Editors at Give InKind love nothing more than a wander through the aisles of perfectly ripe cheese, succulent fruit, organic meat and more. Whole Foods has terrific pre-made options which are a great gift for families needing to spend time in hospitals, for busy families on the go - and more. A contributor remembers the months she spent trying to stay healthy herself as she nursed her daughter through in-hospital pediatric oncology care. Healthy options helped a great deal.
What To Express in Your Card: I know you don't always know what you want until you see it. I am just wanting to say that I am thinking of you and sending all my love. I want you to feed your body good things.

One year ago this month, in March 2021, my daughter and I drove to South Carolina to see my dad. At one point, she was driving, so I checked Facebook to while away the time and I see that my friend and fellow writer Kelly Hartog had posted a plea for a kidney.
