Bright Spot in a Dark Day

Today I heard that my good friend and neighbor, who has been battling lung cancer, found out that her tumor had reappeared. She has gone through both Radiation and Chemotherapy treatments. The tumor had shrunk to zero after the radiation treatment and she was on medication to prevent a regrowth. It didn't work, and she and her husband have opted out of further treatment.

I got these flowers for her at the Farmers Market today, thinking maybe a bit of color would help her spirits.

I clicked on your thumbnail this morning as I sit and drink my first cup of coffee because I find the picture of cheerful disposition. Just as your friend too will find them to be heartwarming and cheerful. A very nice picture indeed.
