History: Research Tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis, or TB, is a bacterial infection that can spread through the lymph nodes and bloodstream to any organ in your body and most often the lungs. TB can be contagious, because it can be transmitted through the air, though you would have to be exposed constantly to be infected. Inactive TB can be treated by an antibiotic called isoniazid (INH) to help prevent it from becoming active. Active TB can become fatal if left untreated by antibiotics.

this little beauty is growing on my window seal right now! can you believe it?? I think I just figures I couldn't maintain a plant such as this!

this plant was given to Paige when she was recovering from her accident in December. It had three beautiful blooms on it at the time, but they quickly faded.

I'm happy to report, after being put in charge of the care of this plant, that it's thriving. This is the first new bloom since in my care - but there is another one on the way!! I feel like a proud mother!! hahaha. So I shall call her Alice.
