As I have posted here many times before, I adore my OB. She is one of those obs with a cult following - - her patients actually got together a few years ago and threw a luncheon honoring her.

For example, last week, I mentioned how much I wanted to labor as long as possible at home and she was worried about my cutting it too close and that she might miss the actual delivery and she said, "Hmm, I need to check my medical malpractice, maybe I can just swing by your house and check you so we can get you to the hospital at the perfect time!!!" To, which DH and I said no we could not ask her to do that!

Anyway, my OB is now very ill. Very ill. It is heartbreaking and I have heard stories of her (during her multiple hospitalizations) discharging herself because for deliveries because "there are women depending on me."

What is a special gift or thank you I can get her? I am leaning away from long-term material items because at this point her longevity is in serious question.

Any ideas?
