I've just been browsing through this section, and came across this thread.
Please forgive a newbie mistake if I'm reviving something that's too old, and better left alone, 
but I do believe that I recognize Yonni's plant as an Epiphyllum,
quite possibly E. oxypetalum, often called 'Queen of the Night' or 'Night-blooming Cereus',
the green "stick-like" structure with the flattened "leaf" is characteristic.
Mine bloomed several times this year

Zuzu never feel that can't post your opinions here - you're more than welcome to do so. We were stuck as to what Yonni's plant was and I think you've managed to solve the problem for us. Well done!!
