I took these photos in the morning sunlight streaming in my kitchen window


My sweet hubby had to have emergency surgery to repair a tear in his retina this past Friday.
Same eye as the October 2018 surgery.
He needs a bionic eye, like the Bionic Woman - wasn't she the one that had it or was it the Six Million Dollar Man?


Have a Blessed Day!

These photos are so beautiful. I hope your husband is well with his eye

Thank you!

Every part of our body is a miracle just like this orchid in vibrant bloom for more than month strong.

Hermosas e interesantes fotografías, @violetmed. Muchos saludos.

Gracias!

Oh no I hope he is all better soon. Yes it was the Six Million Dollar Man! I loved that part whenever he would use his bionic eye!

I always wanted to try some orchids! Very pretty!

Haha, yes that was a great show!

Orchids are such beautiful flowers, MY MUm had a few which she looked after with such love

Absolutely gorgeous @violetmad The purity and beauty of these white orchids have been beautifully captured.

Howdy there violetmed! wow, that sounds like a long time for the Orchid, what is the normal bloom time? Or do they even bloom in the winter? lol..you have a miracle Orchid! So sorry to hear about your husband's eye, how's he doing?

Yes orchids do bloom a long time! Yes I guess the greenhouses get them to bloom in the winter and sell them to the grocery stores!! Mine always do great in my sunny kitchen! My husband is just resting up now. Has to take it easy and be careful not to put extra pressure or strain on his eye!

Howdy back violetmed! Your husband, how long does he have to lay around like that? That would be hard to do!

Hey @janton, he is still taking it easy and laying down a lot and it is now 12 days since the surgery!

Howdy violetmed! oh boy, that has to be frustrating for him but he has no choice so he's doing it, good for him, I'm sure it will be a complete recovery!
