This is so beautiful, Sara. Love the thought of "rain lilies" in bloom now that fall showers are upon us. Please know you and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers. I have had two surgeries on one vocal chord to remove a node. Thankfully they were successful. I pray that the treatment will be successful! Blessings of healing to both of you!

Thank you, Sam. I know that you can understand what he might be going through. He is really having a hard time with large amount of mucus in his throat, inability to speak, swallowing and a sore throat. Eating is very hard for him. Your visit and sharing are a help. Sara K

- A painful answer from the doctor... the word cancer gives me a wide range of emotions... I never use the word "hate"... but, it fits the cancer... so sorry, Sara :( - hugs

Anne-Lise, yes, we don't want to hear cancer. I am hoping it has been caught in time. The doctor says it is a large tumor for the area in which it is located. The results of the test done on Wednesday will tell us which direction that we can go. Thank you for your kind review of my work. Sara K

Sara B., thank you so much for the prayers and hugs. I know we will be needing them each day that follows. I am glad you found the imagery beautiful. We have been so dry here then we have gotten a very small amount of rain, and I opened the back door and one rain lily was blooming. Sara K
