How to Help Sick Friends and Family

Hello, it’s Amanda from Life at Cloverhill. Cold and flu season is upon us and it seems like just about every other day you’re talking to friends and family who are under the weather.

How about putting together a little gift basket to make them feel better? I remember when I used to get sick in university my mom would send a care package and it was such a lovely surprise. When you’re feeling really low, getting a thoughtful gift from a loved one can really lift your spirits.

You can even put together one for someone who is having surgery or recovering from an accident. We can all use some unexpected cheering up from time to time.
