disclosure: i am filling this in for my friend. she got ill very suddenly and has ended up in a cancer ward completely unexpectedly. she is very sick and in a lot of pain, but she was SO EXCITED and SO MOVED by what her secret santa sent her.

on the top of her wishlist was a kindle. she never really expected anything like that. maybe a book, or a dvd. what arrived in the mail - very late (thanks to a country post office) was a kobo mini. it left this user (the one who is now in hospital) in tears. she was so moved by her secret santa's generosity and kindness, and was touched by the beautiful card she had also been sent.

i have now been given the job of filling the ereader with books for her to read while she receives her treatment.

thank you so much, secret santa. you have no idea how much your gift has touched your giftee during a very difficult time.
