How to Aptly Express Your “Get Well Soon” Wishes

Accidents happen whether we like it or not, and sometimes, it happens to those around us. In such cases, many of us find ourselves lost with regards to what exactly we can do to express our well wishes. However, it is impertinent that we do so nonetheless. A small gesture on our part can mean the world to another, especially if it is genuine and well thought through.

So, here are three ways to aptly express your “get well soon” wishes to those who need it:

Visit

If possible, pay them a visit. Recovery can be a scary and lonely process, regardless of whether the person is stuck in a hospital or at home. Take some time off your schedule and make an effort to visit the person in recovery and deliver your “get well soon” wishes. They’re bound to appreciate some company, no matter the time of day. 

Your presence will also assure them that they are not forgotten, despite the rest of the world seemingly moving on with their day-to-day as per usual. This will effectively dissuade them from misbelieving that “the world waits for no one” or that their plight is inconsequential. 

Write

Second, write them a message. It’d be best if you send over a card that they can take refuge in whenever they’re alone. However, a simple text will also suffice and it’s always better than nothing. If you do end up writing a “Get Well Soon” card, you can either choose to have it delivered via a courier service or bring it over yourself if you can afford making a visit. Either way, a well written card can bring a lot of cheer.

If you need help penning your sentiments unto paper, the following steps may prove useful:

1. Start off with a friendly greeting. “Dear” often works fine, but also consider how you usually address this person. The more personal the greeting, the more heartfelt your subsequent words will feel. 

2. Craft your well wishes. This can take the form of a quote, lyric, or even personally written prose. It could be short or lengthy, depending on your preference and that of the recipient in mind. Even a simple “Get Well Soon” is fine, as long as it lets the person know you wish the best for them. 

3. Give specific encouragement. Acknowledge any progress that they’ve made and address any worries you feel that the person may be harbouring. You can even state your confidence of their competence and ability to overcome this difficult period. Just make sure your message is positive rather than focusing on the negatives of their situation.

4. Remind them that you’re thinking of them. Every one of us takes comfort in knowing that we matter to others. Explicitly make known to them that you have them in your thoughts. You can even send over some fruits or flowers, but we’ll get to that in our later point. 

5. Offer your help and support. Ask them if there’s anything you can do to help their recovery. Simple things like helping them with housekeeping or dropping off their favourite hot meal can make a world of difference. 

6. Close off with a warm goodbye. Use a warm closing when signing off on your card, such as “with love”, “take care”, or “thinking of you”. It is especially important to indicate who the card is from if you are using a courier service or sending over the card with a “Get Well Soon” fruit or flower basket — which brings us to the last point. 

Gift Flowers and Fruits

Send over a thoughtful gift of flowers and fruits to wish them a speedy recovery. A flower bouquet, fruit hamper, or any floral gifts of the sort is sure to uplift the mood of the giftee and aptly communicate your care and thoughts for them. 

Flower and fruit hampers are a welcome sight, and ones that are hard to miss or forget once they’ve reached their destination. You can even pair them off with bottles of Brand’s Essence of Chicken to speed up their recovery and aide their good health, such as in our Get Well Soon Hamper I and Hamper II. If fruits are more appropriate or preferred, we also have the Fruit Basket, Tropical Box, and more that will make for the perfect “Get Well Soon” gift. 

“Get Well Soon” flower bouquets are another option you can consider; we recommend going for fresh flower bouquets over preserved ones as the natural scent of fresh flowers is known to have a calming effect that can soothe discomfort, pain, and unease.
