Liver Cleansing Plants

Memorial for Grandma?
I am looking for a great way to memorialize and honor my grandmother, who is sick with lung cancer and was given just a few months left by the doctors. She is a wonderful and fiery little lady!
When my aunt passed away of liver disease a few years ago, my way of honoring her was to plant a tree by the Anacostia River (very polluted area) which simultaneously cleansed the river and nourished a beautiful tree. This was my grandmother’s (the same one) daughter and she loved the idea — she even got a plaque and a photo of the tree with her late daughter’s name and dates. I’m thinking of doing something similar, but I don’t want to do the same thing twice — plus, I want to honor Grams in a different way.
Any suggestions would be appreciated! And something that I can do while she’s still alive to show her how much she means to me would also be appreciated.
I like the idea of a tree. You could think of this as something your family would do for generations. Planting a tree could never get old. Think of all the good that you are bringing not only to your loved one, but for the earth. It’s a wonderful idea. Or you might think of a ‘star’. I have heard that people have actually named stars in the sky after their loved ones. You might also consider something that she was involved in – a hobby or something that you might want to donate to others. A financial gift to some charity; the family members could write poetry, essays or quotes, songs, or other memorial quips and make a book out of it – print it and make it available for the whole family. Create a picture book (collage) of the family with lots of her pictures in it – very colorful and pretty. Present it to her. Or you could dedicate a family Bible in her name with all the family members names in it.
I still like the idea of the tree…..
The fact that you all have done this shows how much you really love her. I am sure she has been loved and honored just by the love you have shown. God bless her and all of you and give you strength throughout this time.
