I just sold all of this. Cancer sucks!

I was diagnosed with incurable, stage 4, cancer this spring. Although I am responding well to treatment, the wise thing to do is be ready for my health to decline.

I don't want my plants to burden my family so it's better to let go of my babies now than to wait until/if my health dictates my family has to do it on their own.

Sold them to a plant shop. It's bittersweet. Sorry to see them go, but relieved to have that workload off my chest. Here is to focusing on health and hopefully many healthy decades to come! 🍻

Edit: Wow everyone you are amazing! I'm a bit overwhelmed right now but know I am reading and appreciate your posts!

Edit 2: I am trying to respond as I have energy, but there's so much support I can't keep up, lol. Thanks again. If I haven't responded to you, just know I apprecaited reading your comment when I didnt have the stamina to respond. I really am excited to start a new collection with plant babies from all over. What a great dream for me to look forward to. Here's to hoping and healing!
