Michelle was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer on March 22, 2019.  She had put off going to the doctor for a few years because her regular doctor had retired.  She needed to get some other lady parts checked out and the new doctor sent her for a routine mammogram.  The imaging and biopsy found cancer in both breasts.  She started an aggressive form of chemotherapy on April 4th and treatment will continue for one year.  Michelle is going to need assistance with meals and cleaning.  She wants to make sure her son Jackson and significant other Carl eat even if she may not want to.  Lets all get together and show Michelle our support in this tough time.  She will kick this cancers ass!

Why We Love This Gift: Managing life is much easier with tangible support. A meal kit delivered and ready to cook enables those in need of support to fill their house with the smell of a nutritious and delicious meal - without having to plan or shop for it. This is a great gift for people in the sandwich generation - those caring for kids and aging parents. It is a great gift for a single parent who loves taking care of things - but could do with a lightening of the load. Also, remember that these kits will supply all necessary ingredients for dishes. Therefore, your best friend newly living in non-urban elsewhere won't have to find lemongrass for Thai food. Win/win. Note that Blue Apron recipes tend to cater to the more saucy and adventurous eating types. The food though, is so good, that kids do eat it - even if they think they won't. Note that some recipes can be hard to prep in advance.
What to Express in Your Card: I was thinking about how much you have to do - work, kids. I wanted just to say that I am always so amazed at how you keep it all together. I wanted to send you a meal just to say that you are amazing. I send with it lots of love.

Good at over 25,000 locations nationwide, recipients can use their Spafinder gift card for a massage or facial, yoga or pilates classes, acupuncture or chiropractic, or over 25 total services. Encourage your loved one to take a break for themselves with a wellness gift card they can use anytime. Available in any denomination between $25 - $500.
Why We Love This Gift: This is one of those gifts perfect in just about any situation. New moms and those facing stressful pregnancies love a massage. When facing illness, those affected do too. To be frank, self-care is often the first casualty of any crisis. When people are incurring unexpected costs at an alarming rate, the first thing to go are the "luxuries." However, those who face highly stressful situations with long/uncertain outcome are precisely those who should practice aggressive self-care. They won't do it for themselves. You do it for them. Pamper them. Let them know you want them to take a break and that their well-being is a priority.
What to Express in Your Card: I hope you don't mind my sending you this gift certificate. There is no one I know more in need of a massage/facial/yoga class. I know you won't do it for yourself - so I wanted to do it for you. I am sending you love.

Olive Garden offers an award-winning wine list and a range of delicious Italian dishes inspired by the Culinary Institute of Tuscany in Italy.
This gift card can be redeemed at any Olive Garden, LongHorn Steakhouse, Bahama Breeze, Seasons 52, Yard House, Red Lobster, or any other associated restaurant in the US.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it provides a break for a tired family to sit down together and share a meal. For example, those who have lost a loved one may sometimes permit themselves a little comfort and companionship. In such a circumstance, a meal shared is true and lasting kindness. If the deceased was a breadwinner, the bereaved may be watching the wallet. Enable this person you love to grab a meal - wherever s/he is.
What To Express in Your Card: I am thinking so much about you. Please take a few minutes to get something to eat and drink - on me.

Since 1971, Starbucks Coffee Company has been committed to ethically sourcing and roasting the highest quality arabica coffee in the world. Today, with stores around the globe, the company is the premier roaster and retailer of specialty coffee in the world.
Why We Love This Gift: Because it is coffee. We love this gift for that reason, but also because coffee (and tea) can facilitate conversation. People stop and talk over coffee and tea. Barista-made cups of coffee or steaming cups of hot tea are among life's "little" indulgences - the kind of thing that lifts people up. They are also among the first things people slash from tight budgets. Help them put it back. This gift is suitable for anyone to whom you want to express concern, consideration, or love. Also, here is a hot tip: teenagers love Starbucks. It is a great gift for a teenager.
What to Express in Your Card: I was just thinking about you as you grapple with recent events. I hope you will take a break and enjoy a cup of coffee - I know you are a latte fan. Maybe we can even meet for a cup? I'd love to know how you are doing and what I can do to be helpful. I send you lots of love.
