#2 I hit. And it HIT me a bit harder than the average. I done appropriations before. I did one fairly recently. I found it rather boring. BUT THIS, I found quite sad. So its 2 older folks it seems. I cant say what happened to the wife, or where she is. The husband (or father as the notes were written to PSW's presumably from the daughter) was not in great shape it seems. On diuretics (found in the basement) possibly with a catheter (some kind of medical supply on the bed, didnt look to hard and it could have been the wifes things ect). The photographed note on the main floor bedroom read, paraphrasing “my father does not need help in and out of bed anymore and he can do it with the lift” & “good news, my father has been accepted to Freeport […]”

Freeport from what I think I know, has broadened their services to include some mental health related things, but for the most part, Freeport is an end-of-the-line hospital. Its a place most people go into and are not great needing long term care, and usually the dont make it out….These poor folks probably truthfully wanted to die here in peace. And now their daughter (and maybe another kid, unknown) seem to not be able to deal with most of the former estate. Its sad to me. Im glad I am able to type this up, and wait for the album to upload, and then start to edit more after going out and shooting things…all while knowing that my housing situation is stable, and I wont have to be concerned and worried about having to uproot and move, for an industrial site that shouldnt even be.

Good air. Lots of light. Neat items left behind. Bit of a sad story it narrates for The City Of Cambridge and its future. As I said on the social media, Appropriated to be demolished so the people who owned these can live unhappily ever after. 
And so Capitalism dictates. And the world goes round.
