On our recent visit back to IL, we just happened to take our friend Mother Esther to see about a new place to live in a supportive living facility. She has been somewhat isolated in an 
apartment, off the beaten track.
She called with the news that she has decided to move!!!! I am so happy and relieved! The facility has a puzzle room, craft group, scheduled trips for shopping, transportation to doctor’s appointments, exercise room, all meals included, plus many other perks. And best of all, she will be able to move into the apartment we viewed. It has a southern exposure -- so lots of light and opens onto the courtyard that has raised gardens.
Ok, maybe the BEST of all, is that she won’t be so isolated. It does my heart good to know she won’t be alone in her day-to-day.
*Esther continues to crochet Cancer Care Caps, and has had an influx of donated yarn from the Center :)))))))). So very grateful. Don’t you love her smile? 😊

When our love for loved one wins, it finds better ways to help them, be it finding new supportive living facility or else.
God already blessed her with smiles and happiness. May He continue it throughout sister Esther's life.
Your love shows sister Mindy to take Esther to see new facility, her future hOMe.
Thanks for sharing.
