The Perfect Gift

GIFT FOR THE ILL

Let them know you care and that God cares!

We all know someone that is sick, elderly, living alone, or maybe just going through rough times. When it comes to choosing a gift for someone dear to us, we have a hard time deciding what's appropriate.

If you send flowers they wilt and die, and you risk the patient not being able to enjoy your gift due to allergies, lack of space, or hospital policy. Candy, or other food items could be a bad dietary idea. Inspirational Pillowcases are less expensive than flowers, more thoughtful, and will be enjoyed for years to come.

Our company has taken luxurious high thread-count 100% Egyptian Cotton pillowcases and screen printed them with beautiful designs and inspiring messages. An Inspirational Pillowcase is something tangible that you can send, to let someone know you're concerned. And, it's just the thing to brighten their day and help them maintain a positive outlook. The pillowcase can be used over and over, confirming your inspiring thoughts and prayers, when all other gifts are long gone.

The concept of Inspirational Pillowcases came from the desire to give a meaningful gift to friends suffering with serious illnesses. We have many designs to ensure you find the perfect gift for that special person in your life that has an illness, for someone that lives alone, or just to let a friend know they are loved. What a joy it is to encourage others that tomorrow will bring a day with new dreams and hopes. At a time in my life, God led my way back to joy and a fulfilling life. I am very grateful to those that kept in touch to let me know they cared.

Not only do we want to bring a smile to someone's face, but to give to the charities that need our support. Part of the proceeds from each purchase are given to the charity of your choice.

They are a great gift for hospital patients, as they're meaningful, useful, and quickly become a conversation piece. A real plus is they are small enough to pack for the trip home. People that spend a lot of time in bed need extra pillowcases, they're changed more frequently and many prefer several, so this gift will definitely come in handy. When the economy starts to slow people tend to buy more useful items rather than the frivolous, making these pillowcases the perfect choice.

When choosing one of these specially designed pillowcases consider ones personality, faith, hobbies, and the things that make them happy in life. Make sure the pillowcase is appropriate in light of the seriousness of their illness. Sometimes it's hard for us to articulate what to say in person or for that matter in a get-well gesture, such as sending a card, flowers or other gift. Inspirational Pillowcases provide the daily message that someone cares about them.

Many family members and friends find it difficult to visit someone who is sick. If the person is in the hospital, it may be more difficult for some to visit because of past negative experiences they have had at a hospital. Many visitors are anxious or find it stressful to be around a patient because they are dealing with their own fears of sickness. It is natural to hesitate to visit someone you care about, who is in pain or seriously ill. Unfortunately, many people end up not visiting, because they do not know what to do or say to help. Let Inspirational Pillowcases say it for you. And, you won't have to do any research to see if your gift is acceptable.

When someone comes home from a hospital or after they've experienced a tragic time in their life the worst part of it is when the phone quits ringing and the cards no longer arrive, however an Inspirational Pillowcase will be there every day to remind them that you care. Don't let them feel forgotten. The worst thing you can do for someone who is sick is nothing.

If you know someone that's living alone, share words of kindness at the time of day that might be the loneliest for them.

Our population is an aging one, the percentage of ill people is on the rise as those around you battle illnesses from cancer, to multiple sclerosis, to mental illness.

In the years to come all of our lives will be touched more and more by those in need. Over 100 million Americans have a chronic medical condition, and it is projected that by 2020, 134 million people will suffer from a chronic illness. [1] Forty-four percent of these individuals will have multiple chronic conditions. It is also estimated that by 2020, 1 in 6 Americans over age 65 will become limited by chronic conditions. [1] We're thankful that the number of cancer survivors has increased four-fold in the last thirty years, however, the prevalence of cancer will double by 2030 [2].

In today's world emotional stress is contributing to approximately a fourth or more of all diseases and according to . It's also an enormous battle for the chronically ill to cover their expenses, and one more reason for depression. Reach out and let your loved ones know they're cared for, as your sentiments might be the only ones they receive.

Few families in U.S. are untouched by mental illness and approximately one in four adults suffer from a diagnosable mental illness in a given year. About 1 in 7 suffer from a serious mental illness. According to a national survey over 23 million citizens in 2006, needed treatment for illicit drug or alcohol abuse. Many of our designs will provide comfort and morale support through their days of recovery.

Let's not forget about the increasing number of U.S. troops that have left the military with damaged bodies and minds. Vet's have returned with injuries that might well have killed them in earlier wars. The Iraq and Afghanistan wars are resulting in more severe injuries (amputations and traumatic burns) the kind of injuries that troops in Vietnam and earlier wars would not have survived. Today's vets number nearly 24 million, with visible injuries or not. Specially designed pillowcases are available to support and encourage returning vets.

It's time to buy an Inspirational Pillowcase for someone dear to you. Let them know you're thinking of them in their time of need. It's such a blessing to bless somebody else.
