Birthday gift for a front line nurse

Hi,

My mum is a nurse and is currently treating a patient who is confirmed positive for covid. She is also carrying out testing for other people so is understandably quite stressed and emotional. She has isolated herself at home which is necessary but is obviously making her feel lonely as well during this time. It is her birthday in a couple of weeks does anyone have any ideas of gifts I can get sent to her to show her we're thinking of her. Not really flowers as she's working so much at the moment she won't really get the chance to see them. Thanks

Hand cream, really decent stuff, and face cream aswell, the PPE wrecks your skin along with the constant washing.

Hi, I am a front line nurse. At the moment I'm finding things that are distracting really helpful when I do get home. Reading more than usual and catching up on box sets. Anything to take away the constant worry! I also like a good shower and putting on cosy pjs and fluffy dressing gown when I get home! I know Amazon are still delivering, so maybe book/dvd/fluffy gown/socks.

And yes to hand and face cream! We've all been complaining today our skin feels so dry.
