DH's Nana isn't doing so hot
My DH's Nana is having her 5th battle with cancer. This time it started in her sinus and now she has the huge tumor in her cheek which from a previous surgery they have removed her upper jaw and now she's gotten a feeding tube. She doesn't want to proceed with anymore surgeries (she's 80 yrs old). She can't have any more cemo or radiation because she has so much in her life already. We are going to see her at the hospital or home on Sunday(depending if she's released yet). My DH's Nana is such a sweet women. Its such a sad situation for my DH's family.
What can we bring for her? She has everything you could think of and she loves to eat, but obviously can't do that now. Any ideas? I would love to get Merry Maids to come to the house and clean it (since she lives with my MIL & my DH's Aunt) but how much do they cost? They are all so stressed with this plus my MIL has had a broken foot for over a month to add to this. I would love to do something for all 3 of them.
Any ideas? Thanks and I'll keep you posted.

I am very sorry about your DH's nana!
I think Merry Maids would be a very nice gesture! Either that or catering in some food.

I think Merry Maids is a good idea & will help out. I am not sure the cost though

See I thought about food but since DH's Nana used to enjoy food (in the last 3 years she's gone from 180 lbs down to 115 lbs) , because of her ailing health, and now she's on a feeding tube and can't open her mouth more than 2 inches, I thought it may be sad.
How much does Merry Maids cost or any of their competitors?
Do you think getting maids is ballsy? I mean the house is clean, don't get me wrong, its just they are so stressed. Plus, if my DH's Nana is home, I know she won't want the maids seeing her (her moral is totally down). Its such a sad situation because she's refused the surgery so now its just a matter of time.
