What people are saying

  • “I’ve been sending postcards back and forth with some long distance friends and I genuinely forgot how fun it is to get something in the mail that isn’t a bill lol”
    Steven G.
  • “I visited my grandparents last week and it was awesome to see their fridge covered with my postcards! They seem to really appreciate them”
    Eric S.
  • “My parents love my postcards and I never would have done it without Familyletter, I don’t think I have ever even bought a stamp before. Love it and will keep using them!”
    Tricia M.
  • “I sent one to my best friend after she moved across the country and now we’re obsessed. We talk all the time but getting real pics is totally different.”
    Georgia K.
  • “This is such a good “thinking of you” gift, it feels way more intentional than sending a text”
    Alex U.
  • “My boyfriend and I are long distance and this hits completely different than texting pictures. We already FaceTime constantly so having an actual picture of him on my desk feels less digital.”
    Claire O.
  • “I sent the first one as a joke and now everyone asks when the next one is coming”
    Patrick E.
  • “I send a few postcards a month to my buddies from college, it’s kind of like a monthly time capsule”
    Elijah P.

Get well soon cards after surgery

Surgery comes with a date, so this is the easiest get well card to time. Order before the operation and mail it to the house.

Put home on the front: the grandkids, the dog, the garden they aren't allowed to weed yet.

What to write in a get well card

Write about them, not the diagnosis: one wish, one thing waiting at home, your name.

  • Rest up. We've got the dog, the mail and the tomatoes.
  • The new knee is lucky to have you. Go slow.
  • No need to write back. We just wanted something good in your mailbox.
  • The office is far too quiet. Take your time.

Funny get well cards

Joke about the situation, never the illness. If the news is serious, a warm line and a good photo is the safer card.

  • The dog on bed rest, showing them how it's done
  • The garden, with the news that the weeds are winning

Get well postcards, not folded cards

Up to four photos fill the front of a glossy 4x6. Your note and their address share the back, and we add the postage.

Each card in an order can go to its own US address, so one order reaches Mom at home and Grandpa in rehab.

A long recovery? Send one a week, and borrow a line from our encouragement cards.

Get well card questions

What is a nice thing to say in a get well card?

Wish them rest and name one thing waiting for them at home. Two lines and your name are enough. Don't ask for a reply.

What can I write instead of "get well soon"?

Try "Take all the time you need" or "We're keeping your seat warm." For a long recovery, "soon" can sting.

When should I send a get well card?

Right away, so it's waiting when they get home. For a planned surgery, order a few days before.

How long does a get well card take to arrive?

Usually 5 to 10 business days: printed in 1 to 2 business days, then USPS First-Class Mail. We can't guarantee a delivery date.
