I have a question, what do u get for your husband for Christmas when you were recently told they have a year maybe two left to live? When did I ask what he wanted, he said just a new heart? Well, I can’t do that, so what do you get them? We could also use prayers. We are having a really rough time accepting this. Thanks in advance.

Life experiences. Maybe a coupon book for different activities you can do as a family. A good high quality camera for family photos for lasting memories.

So sorry your family is struggling with this. Give him experiences, find out what he’s always wanted to do. Take advantage of the time left, you won’t regret it.

anything that will improve the quality of the life he has left. Things that will make him happy, whatever that may be. For some, it’s music and great bluetooth headphones, a nice TV to take their mind off the impending, a trip to spend with his family one last time while still able. You should get hospice involved, honestly—they will help him choose these things for himself
If it’s in your budget, take you and any children/ grandchildren on a trip/ vacation/cruise

Lots of happy fun memories 
For my mum’s birthday one year I did 5 things that she really enjoyed and got her to pull them out of a jar at different stages when she was feeling down, it included a meal out, spa day, girly time and to buy something new that she wanted, could do something similar - I agree to making memories and taking lots and lots of pictures, also letters.

Fishing trip? rent a boat, bowling, football game tickets? Maybe a concert that you and him or your whole family could go to. Not material things, but memories 
A heart shaped memory box. Since a new heart can’t happen, that’s the next best thing. It’ll be something he can cherish to his last breath. Leave room to add to it over the next 2 years and it can be something you hang onto too.

Take some time just the two of you as well…go on a vaca away from everything and celebrate being together.
Do those things you always said you wanted to do…do them. Write a list together of things you would love to do together, and DO THEM.

Omg I’m so sorry. A vacation to build memories.
Sending prayers and postive vibes your way.
I agree with the other ladies if possible a trip if not experiences , cook him his favorite meal , buy him a video camera and let him make videos for family and friends. If you have kids let him make early birthday videos for them . So they will have something new to them on a birthday. ( you can also use a phone and make sure to upload them on a computer & save it on a usb.
Memories, they give him and you the best present ever, all you have to do is decide how to make them, me and my late wife just spent more time together and the memories made themselves
Good luck to you both xxx
A go fund me 
prayers work wonder you never know what could happen.
Memories! Make memories for the both of you. That is the best gift you could ever give. Love like there is no tomorrow take way too many pictures laugh often and create unforgettable memories! It will not only be a gift for him but it will help you as well!! Prayers for you and your husband.

It’s not about what you can buy. Give him time with you and your family. Make the best memories you can together while you can.
I don’t know what you could give him but I can tell you not to lose hope and dont always believe that nothing will change. I may not know the whole story of what is going on but I can relate.
When I was 32yrs old I was told I wouldn’t live to see the age of 35. I had a newborn baby girl and I was diagnosed with heart failure related to my pregnancy. The doctors told me I would never get better, I’d be on medications for life and i was told I couldn’t have anymore children. I ended up recovering 9 months after my diagnosis. Fast forward to now… I’m now 38yrs old, still recovered and I went on to have another baby. Things can change and definitely get better. Be strong for him, for yourself and your family.

Some kind of memory making experience 
Also, my condolences, I will be praying. You never know, people are known to beat the odds!
I would suggest a gift of an experience. Something he has always wanted to do but hasn’t had time for.
Make as many memories and take as many pictures and share as many laughs that you can sorry hun
Experience gifts . I’m so sorry…
That’s so awful! I’ll pray for you and your family. I’d definitely do experiences. Anywhere he wants to go? Anything he wants to see? Give him the happiness (and maybe take his mind off it) and give you more memories to hold of him.
A tree purchased in his name for after (there is ones for people that are cremated if yall have chosen that direction). But besides that just memories for all of you. A staycation full of nothing but family time.
But other than that… many prayers sent yalls way.
Prayer. The Great Physician knows better than man how to heal your husband. Give your husband over to God and He will guide those who care for him.

Put a slide show together of your entire life together… add your favorite songs and clips from your wedding… your children if you have any… it would mean so much to him…
Or you can get him a camera… have him just take photos and videos of things he loves… and those will be for you and your family later on.

A bunch of tickets if things he would like to do to cash in when he wants to. Sort of a living, loving, precious life list.
I am terribly sorry that your husband & you have received this news. Don’t give up hope. There are advances made in the medical world everyday.
Memories. You do things that make as many memories as possible.
Time with family and friends. Record his stories and history for your family!!

Just make memories. That’s the best gift you can give him the only thing u got to make him live on. We just got memories. I’m sorry for this horrible news. Give him smiles and take lots of photos. Make videos. And when you get a chance spend as much time together not in medical facilities but out side of all that. I know you will need to work but if you can take some time off. Your husband won’t be there forever and jobs are replaceable time would be his best gift. Love and time. This year make holiday videos … like every holiday. While the gifts in the end will before you the time and memories will last until you are gone.
Experiences rather than things. Make memories with him.
I just want to say that they told my stepmom who was diagnosed with cancer she had 3 years to live. She lived 15 and the first 10 years was pretty good quality of life. Just cherish every single day that you have together. And staying positive also helps. Good luck to you both!
A quilt with everyone he loves holding up a heart in separate patches, memory quilt! Don’t ever lose hope…God bless
