Try making a personal memory book for her which has pics from her/your life and other memorabilia you might have......or a nice book or a piece of jewellery.A lady is never too old for a gift of jewellery.

She might enjoy a book (even a book on tape), or maybe watch a movie with her, or if she likes music maybe something like a cd, or maybe going somewhere with her if she's able like to a museum or gardens and wheel her around in a wheelchair (if she has one). She might enjoy a photo or photo album of some sort. I bet she would most surely enjoy your company for a while at least.

Give her a dress or a sweater or just give her a warm hug.

1 thing you should always remember...
No matter what age a women is, she is always young!
Women, specially 40+ and all generally like gifts that make them feel young..
You can give her something like a perfume, handbag, dress or a watch?
And ofcourse give her a hug... and a rose.. and dont forget to tell her you love her
