Our tips
Don't ask for any news in return
"How are you?" forces a reply and an account. A turn of phrase that expects nothing — "thinking of you, don't reply" — relieves rather than adds a chore.
Something concrete, or nothing
A vague offer of help goes nowhere. Offer one specific, genuinely doable thing: groceries, a lift, watching the kids. Failing that, your mere presence is enough.
Your frequently asked questions
Should you ask for details about the illness?
No. Let the person share what they want: a message free of any question is often the most restful to receive.
When should you write before an operation?
The night before rather than the morning of, so as not to land right in the middle of the final preparations.
