Christmas present issue

[boredhousewife60]

Hi, hoping for a bit of help here - NC just in case. I have a terminally ill DM, we have no idea how long she has left as she didn't want to know. The problem is what can I get her for Xmas? Her and my DF have loads of money so don't 'need' anything so I am stuck! Any ideas?

When my FIL was terminally ill I got him a massive (king size bed sized) fleecy blanket with a printed photo of his favourite dog on it. I think it was from Groupon.
He absolutely loved it.

Will she be well enough for an experience? Afternoon tea in her favourite restaurant or garden centre type thing?
Or perhaps a nice treat for herself in her house if not. Maybe a mobile hairdressers/beautician? My grandma was very proud of her hair but had been unable to get there for over a year so having this treat really made her feel great and 'proper' to receive visitors towards the end.

My dad's in poor health and being very disabled now, doesn't do much or need much. Buying gifts is getting increasingly difficult. Anyway, he always has cold hands so I'm getting him this....

Over the last couple of years we've got him ... a wool lap rug for the wheelchair, an audiobook, a digital photo frame you email photos to (zero effort needed on his part. They appear from friends and family like magic!), a photo calendar, grow your own amaryllis, framed photo collage from this years pics, merino wool jumper.

Sorry to hear your mum's so poorly.

Sorry that you are in this situation. Get her stuff that she can enjoy now, any favourite foods or scented candles etc.
Unfortunately, was in the same situation recently (although didn't know at the time) and we have loads of clothes and things that we brought for DM that can't now be returned. I don't want to throw them away, but also don't feel like i can give them away just yet.

Thank you for all your suggestions, unfortunately she is very disabled too - and partially sighted and diabetic. Experiences are out - and unfortunately although a hairdresser is an excellent idea Covid would put paid to that. A local cafe I think was doing takeaway cream teas which would be a good idea, thank you. In fact I could probably make one myself so she could have it on boxing day - result! Thank you all so much - the suggestions you came up with got me thinking outside of the box I was stuck in
