Is this gift a bit too much?

Lovely lovely friend is due a womb biopsy, also suffering from gallstones at the moment and getting fairly frequent attacks. We live 5 hours apart so hardly ever see each other,

I’ve done her a wee care parcel - I’ve packed in fancy tea, aromatherapy oil, a book bundle (3 in a series, they’re tat but really funny), a cute bookmark and a posh lipbalm.

Is that a bit weird? I think she would do the same for me to be honest, but I’m not sure. I don’t want to her to think I’m being daft but if it was me suffering I’d really appreciate the thought..

I think it's a lovely gesture for a friend it's what friendships are to show we care x

I’ve had a gift like this from a friend when I was having a hard time and it was just the loveliest thing to receive.
