Dear Family,
As some of you know my name has come up for a duplex at the nursing home. It is one of the first one's that was built so is about twenty years old. The lady that lived there went to Arizonia every winter so was only there about half of the time so it is in very good shape. She has always owned it up to now. It is good sized as it has 1325sq.ft. compared to the 1515 I have here. It has a kitchen, huge living room, two bathrooms, bedroom and the second room to be used as you desire. The kitchen is somewhat dated with the cupboard doors being white. It has a full basement that is unfinished. There are many details of how it all operates with the home that I'm not going to go into. Tim's, Eldon's. Eileen and Faye have all seen it. Right now I've told them I'm interested but haven't made the final commitment. It is a hard decision to make. My heart is here but my head tells me it might be a good time to make the change while I'm in prettty good health. I need your love and support in this. Love, Mom and Grandma

Mom, You know we will support you no matter what you decide to do. But I also think it would be a good time while your health is good and you can enjoy it. We have many great memories of good times in your house but know we can make more good memories in the duplex. We love you and pray that you can feel at peace with the decision you make.
Love,
Eileen
Mom,
I wish I was there to see the duplex and chat with you about it. I can only imagine how difficult this decision is. Keith and I haven't moved much....and we have been attached to our homes. If I were in your position, I think I would consider the decision with prayer, and through thoughts of what Keith would want for me. We've had 38 years and "most" of the time, I know what he thinks. You and Dad had many more years and I am sure you knew his mind and heart. Should you move, like Eileen, I look forward to making memories with you in your new home.
Please know that we support you, regardless of the decision. Know that we are praying for you and love you lots,
Connie
Mom,
For sure this is a big decision and a difficult decision. There are always what if's and worries in making a big change. You have our love, prayers, and support either way. It is such a pretty place and I can see many advantages as far as convenience, safety, and social opportunities. The toughest part, of course, would be leaving "home" and moving on without Dad. I can only imagine the mixed feelings you have right now. Please know, we are with you in this. I know you are concerned about getting things cleaned out and organized, whether you move or stay. Don't worry - you have a large family that's willing and able to get things done. And you have a GREAT BIG GOD that loves you more than you can imagine - He will guide you and give you peace.
Love,
Cathy
