Open Violets

Watching this African violet come into bloom has been the brightest part of the last week:

Although watching my mother defy medical science by seeming to get better and better once all medications were stopped, rather than sicker and sicker, has been strange. Last weekend we expected that by now we would be making her funeral arrangements, but she is very much still with us.

You can't really know anything with absolute certainty, the body's ability to survive is amazing as is a plant's ability to create beauty.

Such an emotional roller coaster when your expecting the worst and your Mums defies all expectations. I hope she continues to feel better.
