Be positive, cheerful or funny
Things can feel serious when someone has cancer. Greeting card messages sometimes don’t always have to be heavy. A touch of humour can cheer someone up and help them see the bright side of life. Include a joke if you can, or tell them about something funny that you have recently experienced. Another way to bring humour to your card is to refer to a funny story or memory you have shared with the person. In this way, you can bring a bit of sweet relief. Examples of messages that are positive, cheerful or funny:
- Remember we used to… Remember once we… I am looking forward to doing it again together once you have finished this run.
