I am feeling pretty blue right now, but someone to really recognize that it's hard, sympathize and realize how hard we are trying. Maybe flowers and a treat too but hubby just got me ice cream and I didnt even want it (I LOVE ice cream).. So I dunno..
For a friend of mine I sent a gift card to a restaurant near their hotel (they were getting treatments out of town) and a poem....i don't know the name of it, but it has something to do with "just don't quit".
I think anything you send (as long as it is not baby related) will be greatly appreciated. I would say if the person has anything special that they really like (chocolate, wine, cookies, etc) that would be great and personal too!

I'm feeling pretty down and out at the moment.....hmmm-mani/pedi and some flowers? I have no idea. lol-
Really good chocolate chip cookies always make me smile....
ETA-WINE! Wine always makes things seem better for a short amount of time. What about some good gossip magazines?
I love hot chocolate and someone once gave me special kinds and that was super nice.
If I was a first timer getting a package some supplies for the crafts I like, to help keep my mind on other things.
This time around almost better than a care package would be a night of babysitting services to have a night out alone with the hubby.

How nice of you for doing this:)
Great ideas... this is what I was thinking!
Some great ideas above.
For me probably something to take my mind off it.
Book by a fave author
Book on home improvements/decorating ( my continual work in progress
) or cooking. Or whatever interests your friend.
Mani/pedi is always a good idea
Fave movies on DVD with popcorn to watch with her DH, or tickets to a movie she wants to go see.
booze...haha just kidding. Scary that's my first thought though.
You got some pretty good ideas. Movie tickets, restaurant gift card, mani/pedi, etc...
