    Hi elantan.

    Sorry to read you've had a rubbish time of it lately (to put it mildly). How lovely of you to remember the neighbour through all of this and do something so thoughtful.

    I hope this kind thought/action comes back on you tenfold, I really hope your luck changes soon.

    Thanks a lot for taking the time out to take something round for your neighbour. It'll mean a lot to her. Hope things get better for you soon.
