CP: Which would be the best to send? (sad story, involves cancer diagnosis)

I am sending a gift to some friends. The husband is in his very early 30s and the wife is in her late 20s. They are an amazing couple, and have been bravely and lovingly fighting cancer (he was diagnosed about 4 years ago). It looks like their fight is going to end soon, as he enters hospice. I want to send something (other than the letter I've sent). Any thoughts?

  • Thank you so much for the advice.  They are relocating from where they currently live to be near friends and family in PA, so I'm not as familiar with restaurants in the area, but I'll do some research and see what I can find.

  • So sorry :( I agree about the restaurants. I would guess that you could get in touch with the hospice and ask them for a list of restaurants that deliver to their location. Hugs.
  • @EagleWife‌ that's a great suggestion. I will get in touch with the hospice. Thanks so much.
