Get well wishes for broken leg

Unfortunately, at one point or another, each of us has experienced being ill or injured. When you feel sick it sometimes seems as if nothing we do can make the pain or suffering ease. This is why writing get well cards to loved ones who are hurting can be a powerful tool to perk their spirits and make them feel thought of. Get well soon cards can sometimes be tricky to write because illnesses range from the common cold, to a broken arm, to a terminal disease. However, the one thing that these situations have in common is how appreciated your mail will be. Here are some things to remember when you're composing your card. Consider the circumstances. Thinking about the person you are sending the card to and what situation they are facing is very important. For someone who is dealing with a temporary issue like the flu or a fractured foot, saying "Get well soon!" is appropriate. However, you may want to avoid sending this message to someone who is suffering from a terminal illness or facing permanent life changes. They may not be able to recover so quickly and this can be a depressing reminder. Some other messages you may want to consider:

• Thinking of you during your difficult time. I hope you have the only the best of care. Please know you are in my prayers.
• I am so sorry you're going through this. Please know I am just a phone call away if you ever want to chat or need a shoulder to lean on.
• Sending all of our love and support your way. May today be better than yesterday. Please know you are surrounded by caring thoughts.

• Your strength and resiliency during this battle is amazing. I have always admired your courage and ability to handle any situation with grace. We can't wait to see you well again soon.
• We truly miss your vibrant smile and positive attitude. We send our warmest thoughts as you continue to heal.
• Sending you healing thoughts and a little sunshine to brighten your day. I hope today brings you one step closer to your recovery!

• I am so sorry about your broken leg! I would love to come over on the weekends to mow your lawn and take care of your garden until you make a full recovery.
• It really stinks that hospitals don't have Netflix. I'd love to come over with my laptop so we can binge-watch House of Cards together until you feel better!
• I would love to help you out during this difficult time. Please let me know if you need me to walk your dogs, drive you to appointments, or cook you dinner. Give me a call anytime!

No matter what the case, sending out a get-well card is one of the surest ways to brighten the day of someone who isn't feeling their best. Being sick can make you feel lonely and frustrated. Knowing that you have a support system makes the process seem not so daunting, so don't be afraid to reach out! Looking for a card that will really bring extra brightness to someone's day? Check out Lovepop's collection of brilliant pop-up cards. They are a great gift that your recipient can admire for years to come!

Ok so we can’t guarantee these get well soon cards will *actually make someone feel better, but they’re so darn nice to look at that it’s very likely these cards will help aid the process. The first step (of many potential steps) to making someone you know feel a little better is to send a nice get well soon card. No, a text is not going to cut it and while sending a long message via Facebook Messenger is nice — it still doesn’t carry the same impact. A lovely hold-in-your-hand card has a unique way of letting your person know that they’re in your thoughts. It takes a bit more effort to send an actual card as opposed to sending an email or a text message. Of course it doesn’t have to be THAT intensive (Postable can print, address and mail your card for you).

Whatever way you choose to send a nice get well soon card, you’ll want to do it in a timely manner (don’t wait until your friend is already better to send them a card — at that point, perhaps you could send a ‘YAY‘ card to congratulate them on the recovery). But if you’d like to let your friend or cousin or teacher — or whoever — know that you’re thinking about them and sending them all sorts of healthy vibes, you’ll want to send the card asap.

There’s lots of things you can do to be of use when someone is not feeling their best. Sending a card is step one. Then sending a gift or perhaps gifting your time by helping out are step two.

But first, the cards…

1. Yellow Get Well Soon

So bright and colorful, this get well soon card will — if nothing else — bring some liveliness to your friend, cousin or whoever needs it. You may as well package the sunshine and ship it over — this card by Forage Paper Co. is so fun to look at we can’t look away!

2. Feel Souper Soon

Everyone loves a good pun. What better way to send some cheer to someone who could really use it than with a delightful little pun. This design by Knotty Cards will have them grinning ear to ear. Maybe send along some actual soup.

3. Eat The Ice Cream

Everyone loves ice cream, right?  They’re probably already eating the ice cream straight from the carton anyway, but it’s always nice to have support — even when it has to do with eating ice cream.

5. Feel Better

Big. Bold. And totally straight to the point. Sometimes the less we say the better… But maybe still consider adding a few personal words of encouragement and sunshine inside the actual card.

6. Tough Break

Another pun card for the win. Especially applicable for that friend with a brand new cast on their arm. It sucks, but at least they’ll get a little giggle out of the situation.

So you sent a get well soon card, but you feel like you’d like to do something more. We totally get it. Here are some nice get well soon gifts to send your under the weather friends.

The Tee that says it all.

Have a friend with a broken leg? Send them this funny Tee by BestTeesAt  as a quirky way to send them your best wishes.

Get well soon cookies.

Nothing says feel better like sweet treats. This box of cookies from CookieArtLondon are pretty AND informative. And though we haven’t actually tasted them, they look pretty darn yummy.

All the good vibes care package.

Is your under the weather friend a bit of a hippie? Even if they’re not, this get well soon care package looks like a delightful gift to help make just about anyone feel up to facing the world again. Send your good vibes with a care package like this from PeaceOrganics.

Get well spoon.

Want to send your well wishes along with a giggle? This small, but oh so useful get well soon gift will give your friend a much needed smile and they’ll actually be able to use it for all that soup they’re eating.

DIY Cookies.

Baking your own get well soon cookies is a great way to show you care! They may not be as pretty as the pre-bought cookies (although maybe you’re a baking expert in which case this is probably a no brainer for you). Either way, sending homemade anything is always a plus. These cinnamon roll cookies sound unbelievable and will definitely make your friend’s day sweeter. Get the recipe via SallysBakingAddiction.

Make your own get well package.

Speaking of doing it yourself… Why not help your friend feel better with a personalized get well care package. Fill it up with all the stuff you know they love and could use to get better. This will obviously depend on each person and situation, but to get you an idea the image above via Pinterest will get your thinking wheels moving. Think about their favorite candy or sweet treats, maybe add a little succulent for some earthy feels and use a basket they’ll be able to use later to carry all the goodies. Send the card in advance and let the care package be an extra surprise!

A Beautiful Personalised Handmade Get Well Soon Card

A beautiful personalised, handmade card with a picture of someone in a wheelchair with a broken or poorly leg/foot/ankle.  For extra sparkle there are pretty diamante gems.

The size of the card is 150mm x 150mm. I use the best quality 300gsm lightly textured card and it comes with a white 100gsm gummed envelope and cellophane wrapped.

Personalisation:

Please send your personalisation requirements when 'checking out' using the 'Message to Seller' box. If you miss this box and complete your purchase please send a message to me via Ebay.

If you would prefer a different message on the card than the one shown in the photo then please let me know in the 'Message to Seller' box. Please note that I may have to adjust the design of the card slightly if more text is required than can fit in the original design. Also if you see a card design you like which could be personalised for your own occasion, for example I may have a birthday card listed that you would like as a thank you card then I am happy to change the wording to suit your needs.

The message inside the card reads "Hope you are soon feeling better". Again, if you would prefer your own wording then please let me know in the 'Message to Seller' box or by sending me a message via Ebay.

Postage:

Your card will be made (once the personalisation details are received) within 3 working days. More often than not you will receive it sooner but during busy periods it may take this length of time. If you need a card urgently then please send me a message before buying to ensure I can get it to you in time. If you wish to purchase more than one card please request a combined invoice before completing your purchase so that I can make adjustments to the postage and packing costs.
