• Hope, peace, strength, faith
  
• Heal, recover, bounce back
• Comfort, concern, care
• Love, miss, support
  
• Sorrow, cheer, good spirits
• illness, sickness, surgery, treatment
• Wish, pray, get well
• improve, better, yourself
  

1. Stay positive, don't dwell on negatives. Say "I'm glad your surgery was pain free" instead of "Sorry you had to lose a toe."
2. Don't say, "Let me know if there's any way I can help." They probably won't ask, so you need to tell how you want to help. Then tell a specific time that you want to help. An example is, "I will be over to your house Saturday to mow the yard, no arguments."
   
3. If the person is not going to get well, then don't send them a get well card. Send a thinking of you card or generic card.
4. Don't get too detailed about the illness. Mention it if briefly if you want, but don't dwell on it, getting into all the juicy details is not tasteful.
5. It's never too late to send your get well card, but it's best to send it promptly.
6. Don't use cliches like, "There must be a reason." These well-known phrases have hardly any meaning, seem insincere, and can offend the ill person.
7. Try to treat the person the same way you would if he or she was not ill. Try to keep the relationship the same. If you would get them a funny card for any other occasion, consider doing the same with your get well card.
