Birthday ideas for sister in law seriously ill

Some great ideas posted. I know this an old fashioned concept but how about a bed jacket?

Great idea. Thankyou xx

Is there something she has always wanted to do, like a ride in a posh car or motorbike? Facebook is a wonderful place to ask for someone for things like that. Recently a call went out for someone with a motorbike to visit an elderly gentleman on his Birthday. Over 500 turned up making his day.

If it's not too expensive, a cashmere poncho would be nice.

A nice big cake and some nice smelling luxury bath products

So sorry to hear your sad news Blacktabby.
Lots of good ideas on here. I think lounge pj’s would be a good gift. Easy to wear and wash. I’d steer clear of anything perfumed.
When my brother was very ill, he couldn’t bear any scents or perfumed cleaning products. I’m sure whatever you choose, your SIL will appreciate it. 💐

I second Glorianny's suggestion of a heated throw. They are very cosy, and if she's too tired to do much except watch TV she might appreciate one.

I also recommend sleep headphones, so she can listen to music, books, hypnosis or other sound apps in bed or whilst having chemo. This sort of thing. I love mine, and listen to an app with rain sounds which helps me sleep, as I feel snug and dry listening to it. I sometimes play audiobooks, too, but you can choose anything you can play on your phone. You bluetooth them to your phone or iPad/laptop, and once they are set up they are very easy to use (setting them up is easy too, but if she's not used to Bluetooth you could do it for her).

Thankyou everyone. A great response from you all. Very grateful xxx

Wonderful, thoughtful gift ideas! A little gift bag with a nail color, lotion, life savers, magazine, Hershey kisses…. give her a mani…
