Need some help with text in a card

I have been asked to create a card for a seriously ill teen and his family...I can come up with the artwork for his card but I need a little help with the text inside the card.

 

While I have done this many times in the past I am stumped with what to say...I feel sick for this family and the outcome for their son does not look good.  

 

The card would include money for food, gas, lodging.

If I could get a jumping off spot as far as words that would help...

 

thanks for a any replies.

This sounds like your "wheelhouse" @Mom2Dogs .... maybe think on it for a day or so.  I am sure you will find the comforting and informative words to share about this dear family and their sad circumstances.  I am not a word meister....

Wishing you all the best that this hoilday season has to offer not mentioning and other things try to focus on the good.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

If you're comfortable with it, you may want to check with ChatGPT and then tweak the wording to something that sounds like you.
