aunt with lung cancer

My aunt (who is more like a mother to me) was just diagnosed last week with adenocarcinoma of the lung.  She is spending most of this week going through further testing to find out if the cancer has spread anywhere else in her body and she meets with her oncologist for the first time tomorrow.  I have sent her a few e-mails since she received her diagnosis.  I want to let her know that I am thinking of her but I do not know what to do for her.  I thought about sending her flowers, but I don't know.  She lives over 2hours away so I just can't pop in to see her.  My mom and I are planning a visit next week after Thanksgiving.  I just want her to know that I care.  Help!  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
