<human>: First and foremost, my wife is the best. Our relationship is fine, but I can't think of a better subreddit to ask.  By the way, her Mom is great too, and all of the typical "mother in law" jokes - kinda don't apply. She's great to us, she loves the kids, loves coming to the kids' events, babysits to let us have a date night, very good.  Coming out of winter, she had a persistent cough, that just wouldn't clear up. Round and round with her family doctor, we end up eventually getting a chest x-ray, and they found a lung tumor. My wife's siblings aren't super close geographically, but my wife is geographically and relationship-wise closest to her Mom.   

So, fast forward to waking up and realizing - oh shit, it's Mother's Day this weekend. 

We've been in a fog with going back and forth to doctor appointments, keeping the kids at all their various events, and what not.

I'd like to get some fresh ideas for Mom's day.  I usually have the 3 kids and me get a pile of little gifts (mani/pedi set, gift card to book store, or something like that...). Should we do we what we would normally do to keep a sense of normalcy? Or is it time to change things up?

Really looking for some insight if possible.

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
