Sympathy Gift ideas
Any ideas? As I said in a previous post, my cousin passed away, leaving his pregnant wife and almost 5 year old son. She is being induced on Monday if nothing happens before then. So she will have a newborn, a 5 year old and herself next week. She's also Muslim, but I'm not sure how strict.
What do I send? I was thinking food. I don't want to do flowers, but I am open to other ideas. It must be ordered online. I'm not sure of the budget because I'm not sure yet if I'm splitting with my siblings.
Links would be great!
Thanks in advance!

Re: Sympathy Gift ideas
My heart is breaking!!!! I'm so sorry for ur loss! 
I'd send them a certificate from restaurants near by that do deliveries, she doesn't only have to deal with post pregnancy hormones but she also has to struggle with the worst feelings ever...when u lose someone so close to u 
Another thing u can do is make arrangement for someone that can go to her house to clean, I'm sure she'll def appreciate it!
Many hugs to ur family and know they're in my prayers

Instead of food and depending on budget, maybe you can hire a cleaning person for her for a few sessions?

A cleaning lady.
Laundry.
Personal assistant.
Someone to help with errands.
babysitter.
Sounds like she will need some help and support.
I am so deeply sorry for your loss.

Re: Sympathy Gift ideas
Thank you for the suggestions!
Does anyone have a link or number for a cleaning service? Bayside area?
I'm not in NY, so I need to do everything online.
Thx!

Re: Sympathy Gift ideas
Once she is home, I think for food, edible arrangements would be good and healthy and easy.
Otherwise, what about gift cards to things she can order in, like pizza papa johns or something...
a maid service would be awesome too if you can afford that.
