What's a good condolence gift for someone who's had a miscarriage & doesn't like flowers?

The gift would be send on behalf of a company, so chicken soup and that sort of stuff is out of the question.

What's a good condolence gift for someone who's had a miscarriage %26amp; doesn't like flowers?
Just a card. Nothing more. If people are pitching in money, find out what her favorite charity is and make a donation in her and her family's name. You don't want to send something that she'll have afterward, it would be a constant reminder. If you gave her a gift certificate, it might have the same affect. She'll go to buy something, "ooh, I'll use my miscarriage gift certificate".
Reply:Sometimes the best gift for something like that is just being left alone about it.
Reply:A card and a donation made to a charity in her name (maybe the march of dimes?)
Reply:She might like a gift certificate to a day spa or something similiar.


She is already stressed out and a massage and facial would help her relax.
Reply:How about a book, something that would be upbeat, or a gift cert. to a nice restaurant or shop?
Reply:A DINNER GIFT CERTIFICATE
Reply:That sucks, through her a gift card to a beuty salon or spa.
Reply:maybe a gift certificate to a bath and body shop or candle store. Think comforting or soothing. Maybe even a gift cert to a nice restaurant.
Reply:If that was me who just had a miscarriage I would rather if everyone would just leave me alone for a while, no cards or presents...what for....please think about it before you make this girl's day even more painful, maybe you should have a cake or something like that when she comes back to work and that would be fine, I really don't think is appropriate for you to send anything right now...
Reply:That's very nice of your company to be so compationate.


A nice day at the spa for her would be something she may enjoy.
Reply:I think the best gift in the situation like that is being there for your friend. She needs your support now more than ever.
Reply:Just send flowers and don't send any G** D**** condolence of any kind. Just send a get well card and we miss you , BS. OK?





It sounds highly inappropriate for the entire company to kiss *** so much. She wants to put it behind her and keep it on a personal basis. Of course don't listen to me, who am I anyway.


Go ahead, and see how much gossip downtime your paying for in the next month.
Reply:I would think a card would do it. It's not anything to celebrate with a gift... The only other option for me would be a donation. There's Easter Seals, St Jude's Childrens Hospital, etc... Or, if you are his/her employer, maybe extra time off to deal with it all...
Reply:we have given condolence gift of donating a children's book in the deceased name (if they gave the child one) to the local public library. then they can always go read it whenever they want. and if they end up having another child later, they can take the child to the library to read their brother/sister's book.
Reply:A gift basket with stuff she can use to relax. I am not sure what would be appropriate. When I had a miscarriage my company sent me flowers.





You could also make a memorial contribution to a charity in the name of the family.
Reply:Lotions, A good book, something for her home, etc. An inspirational book, gift certificate from Bath and Body Works or a candle.
Reply:a day of relaxation. give her a gift certificate to a day at a spa! Facial, massage, manicure, pedicure, you know, a feel good girly day. maybe do it for 2, so she could take a friend and be able to talk and cry if she wanted.
