HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETTY

Uploaded: August 29, 2007

Description

One of a dozen red roses I got my wife for her birthday. She was actually able to enjoy her day (27th) as the effects of the chemo finally let up after having been so severe that we had her in the hospital last week to have her fluids replaced. Her last chemo will be Sept. 4th. Have a nice day!

WOW, Len - what GORGEOUS roses you bought for your darling for her birthday!! (I need you to speak to Phil - LOL!) Many, MANY happy returns of the 27th, Betty - stay strong, and trust in God's healing power for you... :o)

I absolutely LOVE red roses - they are my MOST favourite flower...not only for their BEAUTIFUL looks but ALSO for their EXQUISITE perfume!! :o)

You've captured this specimen...AND the Gypsophila (Baby's Breath)...so WONDERFULLY - the colours, lighting, details, point of view AND composition are all SUPERB!! :o)

Phil and I were SO-O worried when we first read about Betty's diagnosis AND treatment regime, Len... We're SO-O glad to hear that she is doing a LITTLE better at the moment, though...

We'll be thinking of you both, and your family, and we'll be praying for you, too... ** HAPPY BIRTHDAY **, once again, Betty - and may you celebrate MANY more birthdays in the years to come!! :o) #4726021

Beautifully captured red rose, Len. I hope your wife is doing well & had a Happy Birthday. My mother was unable to undergo chemo or surgery for lung cancer. She passed away a few months ago. #4734214
