Your friend may understand, if she has been through it, that it is a very difficult time going through a breakup, and the appreciation often comes when you are strong enough to start taking care of other things, other than just getting yourself out of bed each day. Thank her now, explain that you have been getting yourself together again, and what she did for you helped you so much, you have not forgotten what she did for you and you are so appreciative. Thank you's often come much later... it is ok and usually understood.

 It's never too late. I'm sure it will mean a lot to her if you do this.

 Hi,
I think it's a great idea. Simply include a card with any gift and say something like "I know I've left things a bit late but I feel a little better now to think straight." That sort of thing lets her know you wasn't thinking straight as you were under stress and sadness. Best wishes.

 you can, its never to late to say thankyou to a good friend at least call. because you will never know when you will need a good friend again and its not just that its good to be a good friend in return.
