Father's Day Present

[Rockrose]

Morning all,

I need some help, I want to get dad a present but given the circumstances need to be careful what I get him.
Any Ideas out there?

[Sqad]

Given the circumstances, I would have thought that Father's Day present, would be the last thing that he would want.

Photograph of you to have at his bedside

What about a card in which you tell him what a wonderful dad he is and how much you love him?
You could even write a poem.
...and a block of his favourite chocolate.

That's what I'd do, RR.

[Rockrose]

Sqad, I think given the circumstances its even more important to mark it.
Tilly, I will of course do a card and I will be there as well, I think the idea of chocolate cake is good - maybe a little hamper of treats?

[Tilly2]

Is he still able to eat properly?

Sponsor a tree?

[Rockrose]

lol Oh god yes tilly - well at the moment, he is eating whatever he wants as he says it doesn't matter if he puts weight on!!

[Rockrose]

237, I may do that after he's gone as he did love woodland walks

[spathiphyllum]

How about some high quality food treats?

A mohair/ wool/cashmere light weight blanket to maybe corner his legs if he gets chilly.
