eralds diamonds precious gems dazzle in the sky hummingbird splendor first of all thank you very much for all the kind well wishes for my mother and our family in my recent postings i really appreciate and am touched by all your supportive and encouraging words last week was hectic with more tests and procedures but we are in the waiting mode right now waiting for test results waiting for surgery etc etc cancer is a very wicked thing last year i created a few photomanipulations of hummingbird photos i took in our yard i intended to post them at the time but i would develop a brain cramp whenever i tried to create a blog posting using the images that is until now it could be that now feels like the right time to post these images because hummingbirds symbolize what is needed so much right now a common symbolism of the hummingbird is joy joy in japanese is 喜び which is read yorokobi tiniest of all birds the hummingbird is quite spectacular it also symbolizes powerful energy the ability to accomplish the seemingly impossible and flexibility in life circumstances when in the air their wings are continually in motion which symbolizes tirelessness and perseverance i start off my hummingbird photomanipulation series today with an image of a male broad tailed hummingbird i find his pose sweet and adorable also my mother s top two favorite colors are red and green similar to the beautiful colors on this bird if you are in need of joy today or at any time i hope this image will bring you some continue reading posted in photomanipulation tagged art birds haiku japan

photo to enlarge this post is different from what i normally post over the last several weeks i ve felt like i ve been in a constant spin cycle increasing in speed and turbulence due to escalating health problems and other issues constant shaking rapid and forceful heart palpitations passing out and intense stomach pains landed me in the emergency room the first week in june hooked up to several wires and an iv eventually the doctor determined the main issue was extreme stress some of these symptoms still continue in my last post i talked about spending several days in the hospital with my mother because of an unexpected surgery that occurred in the middle of june after my own er visit last week after recuperating with us she had what we thought would be a routine follow up with the doctor where we would be told she was progressing as expected we spent a few minutes talking with the nurse and telling him how my mom was doing since her surgery we had no inkling what was to happen next he handed us some papers and said i have your pathology results here there is cancer present what the chance of cancer we were told after surgery was remote but now that remote chance was smacking us right in the face we were both shocked my mom s eyes were welling with tears and her voice was shaking i held her hand i saw the nurse s mouth still moving seemingly in slow motion but i didn t hear the next few words i was shaking uncontrollably my stomach was knotted and churning so violently i thought it was about to explode out of me the room was spinning and i felt like we had been yanked right into a vortex it is a very rare cancer i m so sorry to have to give you this news he said to us the doctor came in next we asked him several questions then he gave us the next steps we would be continuing her care with a surgical oncologist a few days later last friday we met with this oncologist more tests and scans another surgery and more cutting and removing to determine the extent of the cancer and further treatments if necessary we are still in shock with this new challenge and we ll have to take it one step at a time yes it s scary and yes we have cried this is my mom s second battle with cancer both cancers are rare and both are unrelated to each other this second cancer is even more rare than the first and because it is so rare its treatments have not undergone clinical trials there is also no known cause however she will receive care at a good cancer hospital just 40 minutes away from our house my mom is strong and healthy for her age and a truly wonderful genuine generous and compassionate person anyone would feel privileged to know she has been there for us consistently to help out provide support and pull us out of the deepest darkest holes this is not just her battle it s our battle and i will be with my precious mother every step of the way supporting her the best i can continue reading posted in photomanipulation tagged art cancer cancer

one in the above image insisted on meeting the summer solstice they have since retired for their long nap until next spring i have been clearly absent from blogging for a couple of weeks an escalated roller coaster ride with my own health issues as well as spending several days in the hospital with my mother due to a sudden and unexpected surgery left me with no time or energy for much of anything else she is now at home with us recuperating from her surgery but i m able to pop in today for a quick post thank you so much for your patience i hope the new season is off to a wonderful start for

more rows of a few broad petals known as guard petals which surround a center of pollen bearing stamens which in turn surround the pistil i believe the name of this peony is sea shell i like how

help with the healing thank you very much i am still on the journey through several health issues and i don t know yet what is on the other side perhaps i will be able to hike a trail like the queens
