Win a beautiful "Basket of Care" in the Toast to 2012 Giveaway Hop ~ Canada & Continental US ~

Toast to 2012 GRAND PRIZE! Make sure to ENTER TO WIN 1 of 5 $100 Paypal or Visa Gift Cards!!!

Toast to 2012 is hosted by Sweep Tight and Just Married with Coupons and the Grand Prize is sponsored by Likeographers.com
Likeographers.com is a website where users from all over the world can enter awesome giveaways where they can win items such as gift cards and makeup by simply signing up and uploading a candid  photo.  Likeographers.com is dedicated to providing a place where users can upload a picture of their likes, share them with the world and win awesome prizes.


Have you ever learned that a friend, co-worker, neighbour, or family member who had fallen ill or was no longer able to care for themselves?  In situations such as these, often our first thought is, "what can I do?" 

Very often we want to send the person something to let them know we're thinking of them. Flowers, plants or a fruit basket sometimes just don't fit the need; and what about the primary caregiver, how do you express that you care about them too?  Now, with a simple click of your mouse you can send along a very special gift.  




Each Basket of Care is designed by people who have experienced caregiving first hand. Every basket is lovingly packed with many items any patient or caregiver may need to help them during their journey. 
Whether it's a small personal flashlight to prevent a fall at night or a warm blanket to make cool nights more comfortable, each item is thoughtfully selected to say, "I care about you and what you're going through."  
The generous people at Basket of Care were kind enough to send me this beautiful basket to review. 

It is jam-packed full of goodies to help make a difficult time a little easier.  The basket I received contained, to name just some of the items:
  • personal CD player
  • shawl
  • The Saving of Gordon. Lifelines to W-I-N  Against Cancer by Joni James Aldrich
  • The Cancer Patient W-I-N Book, Our Cancer Fight Journal by Joni James Aldrich
  • beautiful mug
  • magnifying tablet cutter
  • AM/PM seven day pill box
  • lemon candies
  • thank-you cards...and much more!
If you want to send a gift that says, "I understand", visit Basket of Care.

BUY IT -
Follow the links to purchase a Basket of CareHope Notes or a book from the Library of Understanding.
WIN IT -
One lucky reader of older Mommy Still Yummy is going to receive their own, hand-crafted, Basket of Care.

I love that each basket is so thoughtfully filled with items that actually help and soothe! Not just a bunch of filler candy and stuff like that

i wish I had known about this when my girlfriend was going through her cancer treatments. The women's baskets are chock full of things she needed - especially the blanket/shawl and heating pads - she was AlWAYS cold. Will definitely keep this in mind.

I learned that they offer a variety of specific cards and books in keeping with the care & hope theme of their baskets. What a great idea!It is common-place to give flowers and fruit baskets etc which are not all that personal especially when someone is going through a dreadfully scary event in their lives. I have had cancer twice and coming from that point of view, I think what they are doing is amazing!

Thanks so much for yet another great giveaway!

I thought the heating pad in the large Women's Cancer basket was a wonderful idea. I would never have thought of that item.

They really thought this through for people who need this. No-rinse shampoo and conditioner? Check. A pill cutter? Check. I'm very impressed!
