Fresh flowers can be an infection risk for cancer patients with weakened immune systems.
What to give a cancer patient for christmas.
There are some lovely ideas for practical and unusual gifts designed for anyone going through a cancer experience.
Hi friends have now set up a gofundme page to raise money to bring the cancer patient home in time for christmas.
The popular 33 year old was admitted to hospital.
I thought you might like to look at our cancer care range.
To date the page has raised over 35 000.
However make sure the person isn t on neutropenic precautions first.
Or consider silk flowers no worries about causing infection and they last longer.
For example a breast cancer patient who has had a mastectomy may have difficulty raising her arms to put on a t shirt so a button down pajama top may be a better option.
Now more than four months later and after eight months in hospital james s friends have launched a fundraiser to get him home for christmas.
Back scratcher or zipper puller.
They re hoping to raise 50 000 55 000.
The money will be put towards renovating the mcgill household to accommodate james and the equipment he needs for his ongoing treatment.
First and foremost the best gift you can give any cancer patient is your unconditional support companionship and at times just a ear to listen.
Hopefully it will give you some inspiration.
The christmas period can be a tough time for many so the right gift will definitely make her feel special.
With very best wishes.
