Quick Tips Before You Send

• Keep it short and sincere. One warm sentence often means more than a long speech.
• Use the person’s name so the wish feels personal, not copied.
• Match the tone to the situation: calm and gentle for serious illness, brighter for a minor one.
• Avoid medical advice, predictions or promises about when they will be well.
• Offer help along with your wish, such as a meal, a ride or a visit when they are ready.
• Send it at a quiet time of day, so they can read it without feeling rushed.
