I'm having major surgery again on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately my Mom and sister are unable to come and help out. David can only afford to take a couple of days off...so we are going to need a lot of help.

Send a heartwarming message of goodwill and affection to help your loved ones feel better  All of our flower bouquets are guaranteed to help lift their spirits. For a loved one who is ill or recovering a sustainably grown bouquet will help them know they are loved and heal.
(If you're sending to someone with a Give InKind page, you might check first to see if they've indicated a preference for 'no flowers').
We're helping farmers all over the world grow their business. Our Farm to Table Bouqs are cut the day you order and shipped from one of our farm partners so they last. All our farms practice sustainable, eco-friendly farming, and we cut only what we sell - so we don't waste 1 out of every 3 stems like others.
$12 Nationwide Delivery, Free for Weekday Orders $100+
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because flowers are always a lovely surprise. These bouquets are even more meaningful because they are grown in a sustainable manner. They practice eco-friendly farming and support small farms. What's not to love?

This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.
What To Express in Your Card: You'd do exactly the same. xo

Walmart eGift Card - Walmart Gift Card

Customizable based upon the needs and situations of your recipients boxes can contain inspirational reminders of love and support, candles, journals, self-care items and much more.
Why We Love This Gift: For a situation as deeply personal as facing illness, knowing what to gift can be hard. Still, looking for something "to do" can be important for the giver and the receiver, both. We love gifts that enable dialogue. This one certainly does that.
What To Express in Your Card: I am thinking of you so much. What else can I do for you? I am awaiting a task and I am thinking of you.
