How very appropriate this beauuuuutiful floral image is as a get-well card for our dearest friend, Mary.
I love that you picked flowers and that you picked the color purple for her.

Hi Nadia and Hi everyone, if you are still connected to this thread I have good news. Mary is home from the hospital!! She is tired and weak and getting a lot of rest. They send her home with an IV hooked up to her to give her the medicine she needs right now. So now we wait. And send prayers up and/or send wonderful healing thoughts out to her. Thank you all. xoxoxo #11326762

SURPRISE!
This is Mary, thanking Pom for the time and effort she's put into this, along with her many encouraging e-mails.
And a huge THANK YOU,VERY MUCH, BP friends, for all your prayers and healing vibes. I believe your combined good thoughts helped me get out of the hospital sooner than I expected. I even saw some fireworks from my bed last night!!
Hope all of you had a wonderful 4th of July! #11327298

Better late than never little Sister. It's so great to see you. I took this photo in Norway at a garden center and it really was in the rain. They hadn't just watered. It was pouring about 15 minutes before I took this. Mary pops in to see us here so maybe she will update us on her progress. :) Thank you for signing her cards. #11329460
