any other suggestions?

Answer 1

The biggest pink teddy bear you can find.

One that she can curl up with / lay comfortably on during her recovery

Answer 2

I’ll have to suggest www.creanta.com

They offer beautiful and affordable hand made paintings from your favorite photograph. I find it a unique and creative gift. What I liked of them is that they at reeeeaally good at capturing the physical likeness. I was very impressed with the results. In addition to portrait paintings they also do paintings of pets, landscapes and anything that means something to you (like your first car, favorite vacation spot, etc).  They’re the nicest people… because I was late with her gift they even hand made a custom card to notify my mother that a special gift was coming her way.  I highly recommend them.

Best wishes!!

Answer 5

I have something that works great for this type of need.  It's called a SCENTSY candle warmer.  You pick out a warmer and (3) scented bars that come in a cute gift box.  I will describe it below and I would make you a SUPER deal if it is something that would work out.  I know she would love it.  ** It comes in a beautiful PINK!!!  Feel free to check out the web site and let me know if you have questions.  

They are "The Hottest New Thing in Candles" and they beat ANY other candle concept out there.  These amazingly strong scents are changing the candle industry.  They solve all of the problems and dangers of traditional candles with none of the risk or drawbacks.  There is no smoke, no soot, no flame, no lead, no wicks, no wax in the air to breathe and no expensive glass jars to throw out.  They offer around 45 gorgeous warmers to match any home's decor.  The warmers ($25) are electric and heated by a 25 watt light bulb which is mounted in the base.  An inline on/off switch on the cord allows trouble free scent control.  Highly scented wax is placed into a matching cup which sits on top of the base and allows the gentle heat of the bulb to melt the wax into a fragrant pool.  This quickly creates incredible "scent throw" which fills the room. These are extremely child/pet friendly as the wax when melted only gets slightly hotter than body temperature.  Each "Authentic Scentsy Bar" (available in over 80 scents) is created from a refined - food grade wax and is loaded with luscious oils.  Each of these bars last from 50 to 80 hours (most of them much longer) which at under $5 each make this system very economical compared to other dangerous and less desirable methods of scenting your space.  After the scent is gone or a different one is desired, the warmer is turned on until the wax melts and can be poured out.  The company offers "car candles" and "room sprays" as well in many fragrances.  Their items are nicely packaged in stylish gift-ready packaging.  These products are sold by "independent consultants" in a variety of parties, shows and boutiques.   With a simple concept and really addicting products it is an easy choice for any candle lover.     I use and sell this product and would recommend it to all.  Why keep doing things the old way?    I hope this helps you and please email if you have any other questions!   -  Thanks

Answer 6

Sugar is not so good for cancer patients. A balloon bouquet would be pretty and happy, You can get so many more pink carnations for your money than roses, the bouquet would be four times bigger! A gift basket filled with pink lotions,bath salts,body sponge,stationary, pen, fuzzy warm socks, a candle, a good book and pink nail polish! Anything you do will make her feel so special. It's a really a great thoughtful thing to do.I will pray for her.

Answer 7

How about a memory book - pick up a nice writing journal or something like that and have everyone write how special she is or how much she means to you.
