The above excerpt from that link has these very good gifts one can give to lighten the load of care givers. My favorite of the list is number 5. The basket of staples for those on special diets can also be a favorite. If one cannot or does not feel comfortable in the actual care of a loved one showing support in the above list is a way to encourage the ones who are.
