    Default Saying thank you

    Two of my co-workers are going to be taking care of me for a few days post op. They are going to let me sleep in one of their beds and give me 24h care along with whatever I need. I'm really thankful to have them around when I need very close gentle care the most.

    I want to say thank you in a nice way. I know a card would be nice but I want to do something more like a gift or a gesture. Any ideas?

    Maybe a gift certificate to get their nails done or a pedicure or something along those lines?

    Spa gift certificate was my first thought, too. Indulgent and all about THEM.

    That's so sweet of them! Definitely agree with the spa gift certificate idea. I'm sure it'll be nice for them to be able to be pampered after pampering you. Chocolate and flowers are also great gifts too. Any of those little luxury type things would be fitting along with a nice thank you note.

    Well I won't be rich after surgery. So probably something under $50 for each person. Good suggestions so far though.

    A really nice hand written note is probably most important.
    Then enclose a gift card for something unusual (that you can afford).
