I had a nice orchid (LC mari's song x mini purple) about to bloom and then one of those evil alien slimeballs of the universe snails ate one side of the flowers (I found the evil bas#@$d and after a fierce struggle he was vanquished). It originally had three flowers but two were so badly injured they didn't suvive and fell off. I was hopeful this one would make it but the evil one put the evil eye on it and it was headed out the door of life too. So I cut off the outer petals/sepals ( I always forget which is which) and hope it will not need as much osmotic pressure to open for a last beautiful gasp. Here is the picture of hope...
