Tips for writing it
Don’t ask for details
Let them share as much or as little as they want about their health.
Take work off their mind
From coworkers, a clear “we’ve got it covered” is often the most welcome message.
Match the seriousness
Humor works for a broken arm. For a serious illness, warm and steady is better.
Collect everyone’s messages in one card
Share one link, and the whole team or family signs from their phones. Free, with no sign-up for anyone.
