Contemporary vivid design + heartwarming and positive messages of encouragement and support = these greeting cards by Corrie Kuipers. Made especially for pre-teens (tweens) and teenagers undergoing cancer treatment, any one of these cards would make someone’s day brighter. Don’t forget staying in touch with a cancer patient is essential – parents or teachers can encourage classmates, friends and family to send greeting cards often to stay in touch (particularly when the child is too tired or sick from treatments to entertain visitors, or doesn’t have the energy to talk on the phone).
I’m showcasing three of the cards here… more tomorrow! Clicking on the image will take you to a larger version of the card at Greeting Card Universe, allow you to read the inside message, and give you a chance to purchase.

A mug makes a lovely gift to give someone battling cancer – fill it with mints, gum and lemon drops (useful to help quell nausea during chemotherapy treatments), or packets of instant soup, or peppermint or ginger tea bags, or anything you think they might like. The message on this mug will get a smile!
