Any suggestions on what to do for my caregiver?

I want to do something very special for him, as I know he's been very stressed lately. I call him my caregiver because he's the only one that's been here for me since I found out about the cancer. He's also my best friend and he deserves something wonderful. I would like to buy him something but I just can't think of what. He's a huge Beatles fan but I'm not sure what he has already so I guess that's out. I looked on google for suggestions for caregivers but mainly all I could find were gift baskets, or jewelry for women. I would like to give him a night out even, but I live in VA and he is in NY so that's still hard for me to plan. I'm open to Any suggestions!!! Thank you.

I was a long time caregiver, Kiki, and from my personal experience the best things the person I cared for were personal self made things. I would suggest a handwritten letter, with a mix CD of tunes that are dear to both you and him. A pocket watch engraved with thanks or If you can swing the money to give him a night out...call a restaurant or order a gift certificate online sent directly to him. Just a few thoughts, but I'd go personal from you...food comes and goes, but the something you do will touch him more than anything.
