As much as I speak English as my primary language and the younger sibling of a collegiate professor who teaches it, I don’t get what he means. What would such a card say in those conditions?
I have totally forgotten what those words mean in a sentence, but it was imperative that I laugh. I guess it is indicative of my congenial nature….I don’t need consoled much.
Back in the day I would have hoped the English teacher stayed off longer! She gave way too much homework. I’d rather have cajoled the easy-going substitute to stay on for the rest of the year.

So … you want a Get Well card that doesn’t say “Get Well”.

Imperative: Get well
Indicative: A genial demeanor helps your body to heal

Perhaps it would be phrased: Get well, if not let me know when the funeral is.

Laughter is the best medicine. If you would only read the comics, it will assist you in regaining health.

If the teacher is very ill, you might need a card with an operative.

Nowadays even an English teacher is likely not to know what you’re talking about :(
