Happy Birthday, Florence. You and your ground breaking work are not forgotten. I'd like to tip my nursing cap to all my fellow nurses.
Hold your lamp up!

Hope you can see it through the rain, girlie!! Happy day to you and a well deserved pat on the back for your great works also.
Put your feet up for a few if Master Leo will allow... :>)
I can't even imagine the life she lived and the battles she must have fought.
A tip of the white cap to you and the others who advocate for their patients on a daily basis, and who provide caring as well as care.

Nurses... some of the most smart, diplomatic, hard working people around!
Yeah, Florence was a great example! I don't think she ever could foresee that she would be remembered a century later!
I enjoyed catching up. Love the shawl, it's so colorful. Leo is a doll and I'm glad he helped you cook. Hope your finger is doing better and it was fun seeing what you've been up to.
