Reply:It sounds like she is out of town..?
If so, maybe surprise her and show her your suport by being there with her..
Thats what I would do. That could mean the world to someone more than any gift can give!! :)
Or do something that will make her laugh and smile to brighten her day!! Make her feel love like no other!!
Reply:maybe a dictionary so she can help you spell! So annoying!
Reply:Send her something to pass the time. Books, magazines, crossword puzzles, notes, photos. Anything like that would be nice.
Reply:flowers and candy
Reply:care baskets, chocolates, cards.
Reply:take her out to get a spa treatment.
she needs to relax and take off some tension.
And take a shift so that she can get some rest.
go there with her and give her some company and support.
Ask her what it is that she needs.
Cater to her so that she is not worried about anything while she's caring for her father.
Reply:How about yourself. She needs support much more than she needs cuddly toys, flowers, chocolate......
It sounds like the hospital is in another town.GO there for the weekend., rent a hotel room near the hospital. Offer to watch her father while she goes to your room, just to relax or take a shower.
Reply:I dont think that you need to send her anything. It is better to give her your love and support. It would also be good if you constantly ask her if she needed anything or if there was anything that you can do. I am sure that there is something that she has had to set aside while she is there like errands or bill paying.
Reply:How about a card you wrote letting her know you are thinking of her in her sad situation and letting her know you are there for her
Reply:MAKE HER SOMETHING!
Reply:Books are nice. They can help her pass the time while she's taking care of him (for example, when he's sleeping) A portable DVD player and some movies would also be nice, but quite a bit more expensive...
Also, caregivers get lost in life sometimes. They spend so much time taking care of others that they don't take care of themselves, so a tin of homemade cookies, breads, sweetcakes or biscuits with some nice little jams, and some nice tea might be a welcomed gift... especially if you tell her why you are sending them to her....
Reply:Your love and support. Let her know that your there for her if she needs anything. That will mean the most
Reply:Be personal. Does she like the outdoors? Draw her a picture, YES! draw! It is very nice. It would make the room seem more cheerful. If you have never spent a day in a hospital room, you don't know how depressing it is. Send pictures of the two of you together, or pictures of flowers. Send a picture of the sunset. Mail a card every day. Send something every day, she (and her father) will be looking forward to getting something new every day. Soon the room will be bright and cheerful.
Reply:if you can go to the hospital than go give her some chocolates
but if not get chocolates and send them through UPS they have 1 day shipping and you can tell them that it is fragile
Reply:A good book. There will be times when he is sleeping and she will need something to do.
Reply:Yourself go visit her for a weekend and be with her you could also have one of those to take care of her father and give her time to relax.
Reply:Books and magazines (her favorites, of course)
Reply:You can usually call the hospital and get them to send up something from their gift store if you want to do chocolates. A nice thing to do, depending on how far away it is, is to make her dinner and bring it to her since I'm sure shes not getting as many home made meals. If the distance is really far and you can still drive there, go to some place like outback etc. that does car side to go so that way she feels as if shes being taken out to dinner.
Reply:send her a nice letter telling her you love her %26amp; even tho you cant be by her side at this hard time that she is in your thoughts %26amp; shes in your heart
Reply:ask her if there is anything she needs to get for her father first and help with that. make her a mix cd of her favorite songs and stay in touch as often as you can without being a pain. let her know she can call YOU whenever she needs.
Reply:does she like to read? I think if I were living in the hospital I'd like a good book, or some magazines, or maybe a book of crossword puzzles or word games, something to occupy my mind.Good luck!
Reply:Get on-line and locate a top rated restaurant of a type she likes. Contact them and have them deliver her favorite meal.
Send her pillows or cushions so she can be comfortable on the hospital furniture.
Think about her comfort and you can't go wrong.
Reply:A card and maybe a cd with her favorite songs.
or somethings she's into.
Reply:If you can't visit her, then try to call her a lot.
Send some money for the food court.
Write her letters.
Reply:Send her chocolates (buy the best you can, and 'dark' is best because it has less sugar and doesn't melt as easily) and a FAT coloring book and the largest box of crayons you can find. Believe it or not, your girlfriend will LOVE IT, because both sick people or their families have TONS of 'waiting time' and coloring is something they can do that is 'mindless' but gives a 'pretty' result ... or a 'dark' result if they are 'depressed' ... also send some plain paper, in case she wants to 'draw' her feelings, but tell her to 'throw them away' if she doesn't want to keep them ... that 'getting rid of dark feelings' is also a HUGE HELP in times of 'need' as she is going through right now. I'm GLAD you sent her an Eeyore, though... Eeyore is 'gloomy' and that is a very comforting 'friend' for her to have to hold and talk to, so it shows me that you really do CARE about this girl/woman ... but are not being 'pushy' because of her situation right now. GOOD FOR YOU! More men should be like you. (I'm married to one, by the way!)
Reply:puzzles
magazines
cards to play solitare if her father isn't up to it
give her a BIG hug when you see her next!!!!
how sad for her :(
Reply:Your love and support and help whenever she needs a break from her pain that she is experiencing
Reply:she needs all the support that she can get. The best thing that you can do for her is be there with her.
Reply:Bible
Reply:Blankets from home or anything that would make her feel like a part of home is there with her.
