Such a nice apartment! It’s a two-bedroom unit well appointed with a very large living room and balcony. The apartment is on the second floor, facing northwest and well shaded by trees. The new Mr. Slim A/C unit works beautifully, so it’s comfortable and cool even in the recent 32-degree heat.
Thanks to Susan for all her help on getting new carpet, blinds, and A/C installed on time. And thanks to Teresa’s church friends for preparing and delivering such a delicious hot lunch at 1:00, right on time as promised! There are quite a few pictures, so please click the link below to view. (Click in the middle of the first picture, on the big "i", for captions.)
The Big Move
It’s all a bit much for Teresa to get used to, of course. This is a big change, even though it’s a welcome step. A new environment always takes time to absorb – new faces, new routines, new living space. But as one of Teresa’s granddaughters observed recently, “Oma looks really good.” It’s true – the hair is returning, a fitting metaphor for this new chapter in Teresa’s life. Sure there will be lots to get used to, but Teresa remains optimistic about her future.
Final post – summer’s here, so this is the final post for the time being. Teresa Lassche’s Cancer is in remission, and with God’s help it will never return. Thanks to all of you for your ongoing support over this difficult and trying time in Teresa’s life. Your prayers, phone calls, and friendship have made all the difference. Please keep on praying, calling, and maintaining contact with Teresa in the months and years ahead.
May God bless you all richly!
