friend diagnosed, how to help? :(

Hi there, my best friend (27 years old) just found out she has leukemia (not even sure what kind, she's still in the hospital having tests done). I believe she started chemo last night, and will be in the hospital at least a week. Unfortunately I just moved 750 miles away from her, and have no idea how to help. I do have a way to get a care package to her in the new few days, while she's still in the hospital, but have no idea what to send- I feel so clueless about all this, I'm not even sure what she's allowed to have in the hospital. I guess I'm asking if anyone has any suggestions? If you, or your loved one, was in the hospital with cancer, what did you/they want with them? Books? Teddy bears? Any advice would be appreciated, I just wanna be able to help her in any way possible, and I'm not sure what to do. Thanks

I son have ALL and we are in and out of hospital the last three and half months. After two months of chemo, we start giving him Cloud Mushroom extract (see website). It work wonder on him, first time i.c.e. chemo he was in bed feeliong weak for two weeks. One week before the 2en I.C.E, we started giving him this product, two days after this chemo, he as walking around the house telling me how much better he feel, the doctor told me maybe his body get used to teh drug but we don't buy that. We beleive this product reduced the side effect and help him recover faster.
