Mum's Care Package

Recently, we've had a family member who's fallen ill with Cancer; and my Mum has been looking after him.  Her brother is finding it hard to deal with all the doctor's appointments, shopping and looking after his household chores.  So, Mum's been doing those things for him; with the assistance of Dad doing some yard work for him too. 
I put out the word on Bookcrossing to put together a Care Package for her - to show our support - and the members have pulled together like you wouldn't believe!  I thought to put here the list of people whose parcels and items that have arrived in the mail thus far.  It will be added to as each one arrives.
