Description

This is my day 6 entry in the Nature Photo Challenge on FB by Debbie Brady. Got Purr Si back today. He has a lymphoma cancer of his nose which is not good. He received a dose of chemotherapy and we will have to see if he improves over the next 7 to 10 days before we have to decide to either put him to sleep or continue with chemotherapy. With every other day trips to San Antonio 4hours each way I have been a bit busy and will catch up when I can. Have a nice day.

Wonderful light, detail and textures - A beautiful array of my favorite flower, Emile! Good thoughts going Purr Si's way - that is, indeed, a tough diagnosis. Bless you for the care and comfort you provide your feline family - sending healing, positive thoughts his way. #1643132

Wonderful color and beautiful flowers Emile!
It is good to hear Purr Si is back home again, although I guess you would have preferred a better medical report! #11401920

Have to take care of things, we all understand that Emile, we will be here. Sorry to hear about the cat. It is so hard to lose a friend like that.
Looks like you got yourself a gorgeous array of plants and beautiful orchids. All the colors are gorgeous and I love how the purple of the orchids stand out. A page full of beauty, wonderful colors, fantastic lighting, and sharp details. So pretty. A favorite. Take care. #11401983
